Abstract

In this paper, Rare earth (La, Eu, Sm) hydroxide nanorods have been prepared by facile hydrothermal treatment of the corresponding bulk oxide powders. The obtained samples were characterized in detail by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). La(OH)3, Eu(OH)3 and Sm(OH)3 nanorods consist almost entirely of nanorods with the diameters of approximately 50 nm, and lengths ranging from 250 nm to 600 nm. This method does not need any surfactant or template, and provides an approach for large-scale and low-cost production.
