Self-organized straight nanowires of WO3 have been epitaxially grown on muscovite mica in low super-saturation conditions. Morphology, structure and chemical composition of the prepared nanostructures have been investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), x-ray diffraction (XRD) and x-ray pho...
