title: Single-crystal α-Fe2O3 hexagonal nanorings: stepwise influence of different anionic ligands (F- and SCN- anions).
abstract: Single-crystal α-Fe(2)O(3) hexagonal nanorings with hexagonal inner hole were synthesized under the stepwise influence of different anionic ligands (F(-) and SCN(-)). This is a new method to design and modify crystal structures of transition metal oxide nanoparticles.
