Abstract

A modified method of gas-phase synthesis of vanadium oxide micro- and nanocrystals was developed. The morphology of the crystals obtained and its dependence on the synthesis conditions are analyzed. The method is shown to permit the growth of rod-shaped crystals rectangular in cross section, whiskers, crystals with a rectangular cavity, and also lamellar crystals and planar ordered textures consisting of oriented rodshaped crystals. The microcrystals synthesized were used to study the mutual reversible transformation of various vanadium oxides using oxidation and reduction reactions.
