Abstract

A widely applicable chemical reaction route to single-crystal Mn ₃O₄ nanocrystals, including nanoparticles, nanorods and nanofractals, is presented. We found, with some surprise, that the dripping speed of NaOH solution plays an important role in the nanostructure evolution of Mn₃O₄ nanocrystals. The difference in the dripping speed of NaOH solution leads to a large difference in the Mn₃O₄ morphologies produced (particles, rods, or fractals). © 2006 Acta Materialia Inc.
