Abstract

Aluminum nitride (AlN) nanowires were synthesized by co-heating a mixture of Al and AlN nanopowders produced by nitrogen plasma-molten Al reaction in N 2 atmosphere at 750–850°C for 1 h. The morphology and structure of AlN nanowires were investigated using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction techniques (XRD). The obtained AlN nanowires are either surface-smooth stick or bamboo-like structured. TEM observations showed that the AlN nanowires have a diameter of approximately 10–50 nm and a length of 500 nm–500 μm.
