Abstract

Tantalum vanadate (TaVO5) forms into nanostructures, particularly nanorods, which may range in length between 100 and 600 nm with a length:width ratio between 20:1 to 50:1, and, as a bulk material, have a bandgap of 1.5 to 3.00 eV. Such nanostructures may be prepared by the hydrothermal method.
