Abstract

Abstract Eu2O3nanorods were synthesized and characterized. The crystallites of Eu2O(CO3)2·H2O nanorods and Eu2O3 nanorods were obtained by means of surfactant assistance, with aqueous butanol solution as the solvent and hexamethylene tetramine as the base. The characteristics of the nanorods were analyzed by transmission electron microscopy, high‐resolution transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and X‐ray diffraction. The Eu2O3 nanorod is about 80–300 nm in diameter and 1–5 µm in length. The formation mechanism of the 1D products was also proposed.
