Changes in morphology during the oxidation of iron nanoparticles and nanowires in the temperature range 473–873K have been studied by transmission electron microscopy. Iron nanoparticles and wires become hollow nanoparticles and nanotubes of magnetite at temperatures below 673K as a result of vacancy aggregation during the oxidation process, resulting from the outward diffusion of iron ions through...
