The morphology and structure of synthesized samples were characterized by transmission electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The phase and composition were investigated by X-ray powder diffraction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The optical property of Co₃O₄ nanorods was investigated. Moreover, the porous Co₃O₄ nanorods exhibited high electrochemical performance when applied as cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries, which gives them good potential applications.

A molecular-template-like mechanism was proposed for the one-dimensional structures growth. The products were also investigated by Raman and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy.     

Enhanced photocatalytic activity of cobalt-doped CeO2 nanorods

In this paper, CeO₂ and cobalt-doped CeO₂ nanorods synthesized by surfactant free co-precipitation method. The microstructures of the synthesized products were characterized by XRD, FESEM and TEM. The structural properties of the grown nanorods have been investigated using electron diffraction and X-ray diffraction. High resolution transmission electron microscopy studies show the polycrystalline nature of the Co-doped cerium oxide nanorods with a length of about 300?nm and a diameter of about 10?nm were produced. The X-ray Photoelectron spectrum confirms the presence of cobalt in cerium oxide nanorods. From BET, the specific surface area of the CeO₂ (Co-doped) nanostructures (131 m²?g^??) is found to be significantly higher than that of pure CeO₂ (52 m²?g^??).
