Luminescent silica nanotubes and nanowires were fabricated from cellulose whisker templates by sol-gel processing. The cellulose templates were removed by calcination at 650 degrees C to generate silica nanotubes with diameters of 15 nm and lengths up to 500 nm. At temperatures of 900 degrees C the core region previously occupied by the cellulose template was closed yielding silica nanowires. Cathodoluminescence spectra of the silica nanotubes and nanowires were measured in the transmission electron microscope during irradiation with 150 keV electrons. A blue emission at 450 nm was observed for the silica nanowires calcined at 900 degrees C. This luminescence was found to be related to defects induced by electron irradiation and was investigated in situ as a function of irradiation dose. The as-synthesized and 650 degrees C calcined nanowires and nanotubes showed a fast decay of the signal. The observed irradiation dose dependent changes in the luminescence spectra will be discussed in terms of defect formation and transformation mechanisms.
