Process study on the formation of nanocrystalline α-alumina with novel morphology at 1000 °C
Abstract
We have reported in a short communication that nanocrystalline α-alumina with novel morphology was synthesized at a relatively low temperature of 1000 °C without any seed material. The α-alumina nanocrystallites at a size of 5 nm were observed for the first time, and more interestingly the nanocrystallites organized themselves into
