Effect of water intercalation on VOx layers in dodecylamine-intercalated vanadium oxide nanotubes

초록

Dodecylamine-intercalated vanadium oxide nanotubes were obtained by distinct synthesis processes. Water intercalation in the nanotube structure was identified in a marked manner by the distortion of the VOx layers in the x-ray diffraction patterns and enhanced V4+= O absorption in the Fourier-transform infrared spectra. Our electron spin resonance measurements sensitively reflect changes in the microscopic structure and magnetic interactions introduced by the water intercalation in the vanadium oxide nanotubes.
