The samples were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction （XRD）, energy dispersive spectrum （EDS）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, transmission electron microscopy （TEM）, Fourier trans- form infrared spectroscopy （FT-1R）, thermogravimetre and differential-thermogravimetric analysis （TG-DTA）, which revealed that Y（OH）2.14F0.86 microerystals were multi-branched and that the branches of Y（OH）2A4F0.86 microcrystals were composed of hierarchical tubes. This novel multi-branched and intriguing hierarchical tubular structure of yttrium hydroxide fluoride maybe has a potential application in photoelectric crystals. The formation of branched Y（OH）2.14F0.86 microcrystals with hierarchical tubular structure were due to the substitution reaction and Oswald ripening.展开更多
