The as-synthesized products were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray(EDX), scanning electron microscopy(SEM), transmission electron microscopy(TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), selected-area electron diffraction analysis(SAED) and Room-temperature photoluminescence(PL) spectroscopy. The results show that the products are single-crystalline In2O3 octahedrons, the length of the octahedrons is in the range of 400~3 000 nm; the PL patterns display two peaks located at 447nm and 555 nm upon excitation at 380 nm, and the other two peaks located at 444 nm and 550 nm upon excitation at 325 nm; the excitation pattern shows two peaks located at 274 nm and 371 nm, respectively. The growth mechanism of the In2O3 octahedrons is discussed, and the high supersaturation ratio is considered as the key factor.展开更多
