The synthesis of single crystalline rectangular silver bar using polyacrylamide (PAM) and silver nitrate (AgNO3) by a hydrothermal process is reported. PAM has been used to create a reducing atmosphere as well as nucleation sites to produce silver seeds along the PAM chain. Several silver nanostructures viz. nanoparticles, growth of silver nanowires, and finally a single crystalline silver nanobar with a square cross section and of several microns in length, depending upon maturity and temperature of the hydrosol, are synthesized. At relatively lower temperatures (above 380 K) and higher pressure amide group of PAM is hydrolyzed with the liberation of ammonia (NH3), which produces a reducing atmosphere. As a result, the degraded PAM chain acts as nucleation sites to produce the assembly of silver nanocrystals along the chain. As the hydrosol becomes more and more mature, a directional growth of silver nanocrystals, called a mesocrystal, is formed. This mesocrystal is converted into single crystals due to fusion of higher energy surfaces (100) of nanocrystals to minimize the total surface energy. This growth process is completed with the formation of a single crystalline rectangular silver bar with a square cross section due to the growth of silver along the [110] direction.

3D type flower-like ZnO nanostructure is fabricated on GaN epitaxial layer by hydrothermal synthesis. The formation of ZnO nanostructures is controlled dominantly by pH of the aqueous solution. The microstructure of flower-like ZnO nanostructure was examined by FE-SEM, XRD and FE-TEM. It is found that the shape of ZnO nanostructures are likely flower and chestnut bur shapes. FE-TEM and XRD analysis shows that ZnO nanostructures are single crystalline. Some discussion is made on the mechanism of ZnO growth in solutions with different pH.

In this paper, the shape of the samples was changed by the magnetic field. Single-crystalline nanowires (20 nm in diameter and 1 μm in length) of MnOOH were obtained under zero magnetic fields. However, cubic particles of Mn3O4 were formed when a magnetic field was applied.

The single crystalline In2S3 nanosheets with highly efficient photocatalytic activity have been controllably synthesized via a facile hydrothermal process without adding any surfactant. The morphologies of the nanosheets were characterized by SEM and TEM. The results show the diameter of the nanosheets ranges from 100nm to 400nm. The photocatalytic decomposition of methyl orange on the catalyst shows it has much higher photoactivity than that of nanoTiO2 which means it may be more capable to be used as photocatalyst in decomposition of organic pollutants.

Single crystalline ZnO nanowires were synthesized by hydrothermal process and then formed nanotubes by acidic etching these nanowires in acetic solution at 85 °C. The nanotube diameter can be easily controlled by dividing the nanowires growth and etching process. The ZnO nanotubes remain single crystalline hexagonal structure after the etching process. The defects existed in the nanowires and the dangling bonds of the nanowires' surface play the important roles for the etching process. An etching model for forming ZnO nanotubes is proposed, which can be proved by our experimental results.
