Kinking-induced structural evolution of metal oxide nanowires into single-crystalline nanorings

We report an innovative method to fabricate single-crystalline nanorings based on the conventional vapor−liquid−solid (VLS) mechanism. The controllable formation of kinks in functional oxide nanowires (NWs) can be employed to fold the VLS-grown NWs into closed ring-shaped nanostructures. Successful...
