Abstract

Electrospinning and galvanic displacement reaction were combined to synthesize ultra-long hollow tellurium (Te) nanofibers with controlled dimensions, morphology and crystallinity by simply tailoring the electrolyte concentration applied. Within different morphologies of nanofibers, the branched Te nanostructure shows the greatest sensing performance towards NO2 at room temperature.
