Synthesis and Control of ZnS Nanodots and Nanorods with Different Crystalline Structure from an Identical Raw Material Solution and the Excitonic UV Emission
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 March 2011
Abstract
We synthesized ZnS nanocrystals from identical raw material solution by the thermal decomposition of an amine complex. The shapes of products were changed by simply varying heating rate. At higher heating rate, we obtained the isotropic zincblende nanocrystals. At the lower heating rate, the nanorods were formed and the length was increased with the decrease of heating rate. The nanorods had wurtzite structure below 175 °C, and consequently transformed to zincblende phase during a temperature rise to 200 °C. These particle shapes and phases were related to the adsorption properties of amine ligands. Additionally, the synthesized ZnS nanodots and nanorods exhibited predominantly band-edge emission in fluorescence spectra.
