ABSTRACT: BaWO4 nanorods have been successfully synthesized in w/o microemulsion system containing barium ions via a simple reaction between Ba2+ and . The BaWO4 Nanorods were characterized by XRD, TEM, and SEM, respectively. Results showed that the solvents composition—volume ratio of 4-dioxane and distilled water—played the key role in the formation of BaWO4 Nanorods. Furthermore, the strong vibration at 925 cm﹣1 on its Raman spectrum indicated that the BaWO4 nanorods is good at stimulating Raman scattering in transient and steady-state, making it as a promising candidate material for laser with self-raman conversion of radiation inside the active medium.
