Abstract
A generic non-equilibrium synthesis technique has been developed to produce novel transition metal oxide nanowires, including YBa2Cu3O6.66, La0.67Ca0.33MnO3, PbZr0.58Ti0.42O3, and Fe3O4. Key to our success is the growth of vertically aligned single-crystalline MgO nanowires, which worked as excellent templates for epitaxial deposition of the desired transition metal oxides and led to high-quality core−shell nanowires. Transport studies on La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 nanowires have revealed the remarkable persistence of metal−insulator transition and magnetoresistance down to nanometer scale. Our technique will enable various in-depth studies such as phase transition in nanoscale oxides and may pave the way for novel applications of these fascinating materials.
