Abstract: Tungsten oxide nanorods doped with molybdenum were synthesized by a facile hy-drothermal method using tungstenic acid precipitate doped with molybdenum as precursor, which was prepared by the reaction between HC1 solution and Na2WO4 solution immingled different percentages of (NH4)6Mo7O24·4H20 respectively. The samples of the products were characterized by XRD, SEM, EDX, TEM and PL. The results show that the dimensions of as-synthesized tungsten oxide nanorods gradually decrease with the increase of the percentage of doped molybdenum, the photoluminescence emission peak intensities of them weaken down accordingly.

Key words: tungsten oxide, molybdenum, doping, nanorod
