Abstract:Investigations into the morphology and structural evolvement of nanomaterials are essential for understanding the growth process. Herein, we present meaningful results on crystallinity transformation of beta-SiC nanorods at different preparation temperatures using X-ray diffraction. Results of the characterization indicated that both crystallinity and yield of the as-prepared beta-SiC nanostructures were enhanced with increasing reaction temperature. Scanning electron microscope and high-resolution transmission electron microscope were further employed to understand detailed structural information of the SiC nanorods obtained at specific temperature. The results may shed light on structural evolvement for fabrication of nanomaterials. (C) 2013 International Centre for Diffraction Data.
