description <p>Abstract</p> <p>Three-dimensional (3D) flower-like hierarchical<it>&#946;</it>-Ni(OH)<sub>2</sub>hollow architectures were synthesized by a facile hydrothermal route. The as-obtained products were well characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM (HRTEM), SAED, and DSC-TGA. It was shown that the 3D flower-like hierarchical<it>&#946;</it>-Ni(OH)<sub>2</sub>hollow architectures with a diameter of several micrometers are assembled from nanosheets with a thickness of 10&#8211;20 nm and a width of 0.5&#8211;2.5 &#956;m. A rational mechanism of formation was proposed on the basis of a range of contrasting experiments. 3D flower-like hierarchical NiO hollow architectures with porous structure were obtained after thermal decomposition at appropriate temperatures. UV&#8211;Vis spectra reveal that the band gap of the as-synthesized NiO samples was about 3.57 eV, exhibiting obviously red shift compared with the bulk counterpart.</p>
