Synthesis of single-crystalline CoP nanowires by a one-pot metal-organic route.
A simple one-pot method has been used to prepare uniform single-crystalline CoP nanowires with a high aspect ratio by the thermal-decomposition reaction of cobalt(II) acetylacetone with long-chain alkylphosphonic acid in the presence of hexadecylamine (HDA) and trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO) at high temperature. The crystal morphology of the resulting nanowires can be influenced by the ratio of HDA and TOPO.
