A simple, room temperature, solid-state synthesis route for metal oxide nanostructures

Abstract

In this work, we demonstrate an extremely simple but highly effective strategy for the synthesis of various functional metal oxides (MOs) such as ZnO, In₂O₃, Bi₂O₃, and SnO₂nanoparticles with various distinct shapes at room temperature<italic>via</italic>a solid-state reaction method.
