Various α-Fe2O3 hollow structures, such as wormlike shapes, ellipsoids, and quasicubes, were synthesized successfully by a halide-ion-assisted solvothermal method. The self-assembly assisted by selective absorption of halide ions and Ostwald ripening speeded up by acidic etching commonly determine t...
