TL;DR: In this paper, hexagonal WO3 (hex-WO3) nanowires with high aspect ratio and crystallinity have been prepared for the first time by a microwave-assisted hydrothermal method.
Abstract: Hexagonal WO3 (hex-WO3) nanowires with high aspect ratio and crystallinity have been prepared for the first time by a microwave-assisted hydrothermal method. By using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and high resolution transmission electron microscopy, the phase and morphology of the products were identified, which were controlled by reaction temperature, holding time and added salts. Uniform hex-WO3 nanowires with a diameter of 5–10 nm and lengths of up to several micrometres were synthesized by a microwave-assisted hydrothermal process at 150 °C for 3 h in a solution containing (NH4)2SO4 as a capping reagent and Na2WO4 as a starting material. The aspect ratio and specific surface area of hex-WO3 nanowires were 625 and 139 m2 g−1, respectively, which represented one of the highest values reported for WO3. The electrocatalytic activity for hydrogen evolution reaction of hex-WO3 nanowires was also investigated by cyclic voltammetry and linear sweep voltammetry. The results demonstrated that hex-WO3 nanowires were a promising electrocatalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) from water.

TL;DR: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one, which seems an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality.
Abstract: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one. I remember first hearing about it at school. It seemed an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality. Usually familiarity dulls this sense of the bizarre, but in the case of i it was the reverse: over the years the sense of its surreal nature intensified. It seemed that it was impossible to write mathematics that described the real world in …
