Heusler alloys are a kind of intermetallic compounds with highly-ordered arrangement of atoms. Many attractive functional materials have been developed in Heusler alloys. Due to the application requirements of materials in new-generation electronic devices and spintronics devices, one-dimensional nanostructured Heusler alloys with special functions are needed. In this work, it is proposed to grow one-dimensional Heusler alloy nanostructures (1D-HA-NSs) by magnetron sputtering plus anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) template. Nanowires with different shapes, amorphous-coated (AC) nanowires and nanotubes were successfully grown for several Heusler alloys. AC nanowires are the unique products of our method. Heusler alloy nanotubes are reported for the first time. The one-dimensional nanostructures grow on the surface of the AAO substrate rather than in the holes. The top of the pore wall is the nanostructure growth point, the shape of which determines the morphology of the nanostructures. A general growth mechanism model of one-dimensional nanostructures on AAO template was established and further confirmed by experimental observation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
