        Abstract
        Large-scale and high-purity 8-hydroxyquinoline lithium nanoribbons with average width of 125 nm, thickness of 25 nm, and length up to several hundreds of micrometers, were successfully synthesized via a facile solvothermal route. The room-temperature photoluminescence spectrum of the products showed a strong and stable blue emission centered at 470 nm under excitation at 325 nm. And the as-prepared nanoribbons exhibited photoresponse. As the light source was switched on and off, the currents could be reversibly switched between high and low value at the voltage of 0.01 V, which might be useful in the fabrication of photosensor and photoswitch microdevices or nanodevices in the future..
