Synthesis and characterization of ultralong SiC nanowires with unique optical properties, excellent thermal stability and flexible nanomechanical properties
Abstract Several-millimeter long SiC nanowires (NWs) with unique optical properties, excellent thermal stability and flexible nanomechanical properties were synthesized using a simple method with silicon and phenolic resin as the raw materials. The SiC NWs displayed special optical properties that w...
