Abstract

TiO2/CdS composite nanowire (∼ 200 nm diameter and ∼ 50 μm length) arrays were successfully prepared by the sol-gel template method. An anticipated good nanowire arrays was obtained by using liquid or supercritical CO2 to develop the target materials in purification process. The morphology, crystallinity, and composition of the product was characterized by SEM, XRD, and EDX.
