A new nanostructure, 1D In2O3nanorod, have been grown on single silicon substrates by Au catalyst assisted thermal evaporation of In2O3and active carbon powders. The morphology and structure of the prepared nanorods are determined on the basis of field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and x-ray diffraction (XRD). The field-emission properities of In2O3nanorods have been measured and analysed. The growth mechanism of the In2O3nanorods can be explained on the basis of the vapor–liquid–solid (VLS) processes.
