A method for preparing an ordered cross-stacked metal oxide nanowire array is provided. The method includes the following steps: conducting synthesis by using an amphiphilic diblock copolymer as a structure directing agent, tetrahydrofuran (THF) as a solvent and polyoxometalates (POMs) as an inorganic precursor, where the diblock copolymer can interact with POMs via an electrostatic force to form a core-shell cylindrical micelle in the solvent, which self-assembles to form an ordered multilayer-crossed organic-inorganic composite nanostructure during an evaporation process; the template is removed by calcination in air, thereby obtaining ordered and crossed metal oxide nanowires with various elements doping. The nanowire array material has a high specific surface area, a high crystallinity, and realizes uniform doping of heteroatoms.
A method for preparing an ordered cross-stacked metal oxide nanowire array, wherein a core-shell cylindrical micelle is formed through an electrostatic force between a hydrophilic block of an amphiphilic diblock copolymer template with a hydrophobic block having an ultra-high molecular weight and a polyoxometalates (POMs) anion, wherein the amphiphilic diblock copolymer template consists of polystyrene-block-poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO-b-PS), the hydrophilic block is a PEO block, the hydrophobic block is a PS block, and the POMs used is one or more selected from the group consisting of phosphotungstic acid, silicomolybdic acid and phosphomolybdic acid;
