Abstract
A new type of potassium doped manganese oxide nanowires were synthesized using a simple hydrothermal route. The reduction of MnO4- in the presence of acetate species led to the formation of the Multi-filamentous nanowire structure. Detailed TEM and chemical characterizations indicated that potassium ions were homogeneously distributed in the nanowires. XPS results show a clear binding energy shift (1 eV) for K(2p) peak in nanowires compared with its starting material of KMnO4. Detailed synthetic condition investigation indicated that the presence of acetate ions played an important role in the formation of such a type of nanowires other than layered structures.
