It has been found that two-step treatments at two different temperatures, 400 degrees C and 800 degrees C, lead to the growth of nanowires all over the sample surface. The nanowires are of single crystalline rutile structure. Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and photoelectron spectroscopy measurements show that the oxide nanostructures contain N from the starting nitride. The mechanism of N incorporation into the oxide and its possible effect on the luminescence are discussed.journal articlehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1166/jnn.2008.015http://www.sciencedirect.commetadata only access538.9PhotoluminescencePhotocatalysisSpectroscopyDepositionNanotubesOxidationOxidesFísica de materiales
