Synthesis of single-crystalline hollow β-FeOOH nanorods via a controlled imcomplete-reaction coure Abstract Single-crystalline β-FeOOH hollow nanorods have been synthesized though a two-step route. The formation process of hollow space is from inside to outside. Recently, much effort has been devoted to synthesis of hollow inorganic materials because of their low density and high surface area compared with bulk materials. These materials may be find a wide range of potential applications in many areas, such as catalysts, potential drug carriers, coatings, low-density materials and nano-reactor.Many hollow inorganic materials including metals, non-oxides and metal oxides have been synthesized. The general approach for synthesizing such materials is based on the use of hard-template or soft-template such as polystyrene beads, colloid particles, emulsions, vesicles and droplets. Moreover, most of products are polycrystalline submicrometer spheres aggregated of nanoparticles. To my best knowledge,only several non-sphere and single-crystalline hollow structures have been prepared. In this paper, we present a novel selftemplate route for fabricating single-crystalline β-FeOOH hollow nanorods with length in the range of 70-110 nm and width in the range of 20-30 nm. Hollow cavitys will be gained by controlling the degree of the phase transition from Fe(OH)3 to β-FeOOH and the Ostwald ripening process happening at the interior of nanorods. Ostwald ripening process Many small crystals form in a system initially but slowly disappear except for a few that grow larger, at the expense of the small crystals. The smaller crystals act as nutrients for the bigger crystals. As the larger crystals grow, the area around them is depleted of smaller crystals Explanation for the occurrence of Ostwald ripening Larger crystals are more energetically favored than smaller crystals. While the formation of many small crystals is kinetically favored, (i.e. they nucleate more easily) larg
