Generalized Synthesis of EAs [E = Fe, Co, Mn, Cr] Nanostructures and Investigating Their Morphology Evolution

Figure 3

(a) PXRD pattern confirming formation of the CoAs phase. (b) CoAs nanostructures at the initial stages of growth ( = 10 min) showing pseudoanisotropic growth; (c) HRTEM of CoAs nanorods showing crystalline nature. Inset shows a typical SAED pattern from the nanorods. (d) XPS spectra obtained from the nanorods showing Co2p and As3d peaks.
