Theoretical understanding on the formation of nanotube following the Kirkendall effect is developed. The relations for growth rate of the product phase and consumption rate of core and shell are derived considering diffusion-controlled process. The controlling factors to produce good nanotube following the Kirkendall effect are identified.
