In this study, SiC/SiO2 core-shell nanowires (SiCNWs) were fabricated by thermal evaporation method without any catalyst, using pre-oxidized silicon powder and methane (CH4) gas as precursors. The reaction temperature was 1340°C in an inert atmosphere. The SiCNWs produced by this process had a single crystal β-SiC core ranging from 20 to 80 nm in diameter and low-crystalline SiO2 shell about 10-20 nm thick, and up to 1 mm long. The exhaust gas from the production system was analyzed by gas chromatography and the growth activity of SiCNWs was captured by digital camera during a soaking period. From the results, CO gas was detected only when SiCNWs were growing and was not found when methane gas was stopped. It was clarified that CO gas was produced as a by-product during the formation of SiCNWs. The formation mechanism of SiCNWs synthesized by thermal evaporation method was suggested to be oxide-assisted growth mechanism.

Tungsten oxide comblike nanostructures were synthesized using a two-step thermal evaporation method. The first step involving high reactor pressure and temperature was to synthesize the cores of the comb structures, upon which the teeth of the comb were grown in the second step using low operation pressures and temperatures. The teeth of the comb structure are well aligned and vertical to the side surfaces of the cores. The effects of growth parameters were examined, and the growth mechanism was investigated.
