Characterization using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), and Raman spectroscopy.

Main Results:

Hematite (Fe(2)O(3)) nanotubes were successfully synthesized via air annealing, with morphology controlled by polymer concentration.
Polycrystalline iron carbide (Fe(3)C) nanofibers were fabricated using H(2)/Ar mixed gas annealing.
The Fe(3)C nanofibers exhibited enhanced stability and cohesion due to graphitic carbon planes.

Conclusions:

Electrospinning combined with tailored pyrolysis atmospheres enables controlled synthesis of diverse iron-based 1D nanostructures.
Hematite nanotubes and Fe(3)C nanofibers represent novel materials with tunable properties.
The findings provide a foundation for developing advanced iron-based nanomaterials.
