Low dimensional nanostructures of chalcogens and chalcogenides have attracted considerable attention over the last years. Here we present a simple and cost effective laser-assisted method for the growth of low dimensional nanostructures based on functional chalcogenides. Te nanotubes can be easily prepared via cw laser ablation in a one-step method. By changing the irradiation conditions different morphologies arise in a controllable way, such as t-Te nanospheres. Differences in the morphology control are observed for elemental Se, a good glass-former. This synthetic strategy can be readily applied in many other functional chalcogenides e.g. As2S3 and phase-change materials, e.g. GeTe. Since chalcogenides are mostly famous for their sensitivity to external stimuli such as light, post-treatment of the resulting nanostructures with low light fluence is also investigated. A series of light-driven phase transition is employed to controllably transform Te nanotubes to core-Te/sheath-TeO2 and/or even neat TeO2 nanowires.
