BaTiO₃ nanotubes grown by a sol-gel template method — •Richard Boucher, Peter Renz, and Ki Yoon — Institut für Werkstofwissenschaft, Helmholtzstr. 7, 01062 Dresden

The growth of nanostructures has been thrust into the limelight in recent years due to the great potential that these structures show. Several production strategies exist such as chemical vapour deposition, microlithography and sol-gel. Several advantages exist for the sol-gel route, but here we are concentrating on the possibility that we can produce nanotubes. This growth occurs because during the production process the material is deposited on the template wall and growth occurs from outside inwards. Our interests led us to the investigation of BaTiO₃ in track etched polycarbonate templates. In this work we have used the chemical route of Limmer as the basis. An example of some nanotubes is shown. In our contribution we will discuss the production route, its optimisation, and the use of other templates and/or materials.
