title: Surfactant-free hydrothermal synthesis of lithium aluminate microbricks and nanorods from aluminium oxide nanoparticles.
abstract: Beta-LiAlO2 microbricks and rectangular nanorods have been successfully synthesized from Al2O3 nanoparticles by a simple hydrothermal process without any surfactant or template, by simply changing the Li/Al molar ratio.
