In this research work, nanowires were grown on brass (Cu - 37.2 wt% Zn) substrate by thermal oxidation. The substrate was oxidized at temperatures ranging from 350 degrees C to 600 degrees C in the presence of varying concentrations of O-2 (1%-100%) in N-2 flown at a rate of 200 sccm. The oxidized b...
