Abstract

Rhombic LiNbO₃ nanowires along the c-axis were synthesized by using wire-like NH₄Nb₃O₈ as the starting material based on a molten salt reaction with Li₂CO₃ powders in the KCl melt. Meanwhile, the as-synthesized LiNbO₃ nanowires exhibit excellent piezoactivity. An effective piezoelectric coefficient of around 100 pm V⁻¹ could be obtained.
