Synthesis of Boron Nanorods by Smelting Non-Toxic Boron Oxide in Liquid Lithium
In contrast to the conventional bottom-up syntheses of boron nanostructures, a unique top-down and greener synthetic strategy is presented for boron nanorods involving nontoxic boron oxide powders ultrasonically smelted in liquid lithium under milder conditions. The product was thoroughly character...
