2007年，《先进功能材料》在第17卷12期1879页报道了一种结构新颖的管状纳米材料。该管状材料是有由高度取向的GaN纳米晶粒构筑管状。该刊特别强调指出了：Recent progress on the synthesis of hollow structures in the group of Mingmei Wu of Sun-Yat Sen (Zhongshan) University, Guangzhou, P.R. China is described on p. 1879. A new growth route for the synthesis of hollow GaN nanostructures makes use of a precursor that plays the role of both site template and reactant. Use of this technique results in tubular structures built from highly oriented nanocrystals. Both cylindrical and prismatic nanowalled GaN tubes can selectively be synthesized. The microstructure of the GaN tubes is studied, and a growth mechanism is proposed.
