In the experiment, ferric hexadecylxanthate was used as the precursor, and hexagonal iron sulfide (Fe7Ss) nanoflowers were obtained by thermal decomposition of the precursor at 260 ~C without any additional solvent or inert gas protection. The as-prepared iron sulfide nanoflowers were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS). The characterization results indicated that the nanoflowers had uniform size distribution with an average size of about 160 rim. The proposed strategy provides a possible general route for the synthesis of other metal chalcogenide nanostructures.展开更多

Upon calcinating(at 400 °C), the butterfly wings soaked in ZnS nanoparticle suspension, with uniform cage-like nanostructures in nanodimensions, were found on glass/aluminum surface. The transverse and longitudinal dimensions of the nanorods were evaluated from scanning electron microscopy micrographs as 132 and 159 nm,respectively. Purity of the ZnS nanorod found on the specimen was checked by recording XRD(28.877°, 48.038°, and57.174°) and Fourier transform infrared spectrometer spectra(663.7 and 551.68 cm^-1). Luminescence natures of the nanorods were examined using photoluminescence spectral studies. The characteristic emission peak is shown in the visible region with strong intensity, while the excitation peak is shown at 267 nm. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopic analysis of ZnS nanorod exhibits double-layer capacitance value(Cdl= 6.7 nF), and the Bode plot explains the stability of ZnS nanorod under the influence of electrical field.展开更多

These molecules have been characterized by 1H NMR, EI-MS and single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Molecule 3a crystallized under monoclinic system with space group C2/c, molecule 3b crystallized under triclinic system with space group P-1 and the molecule 3c crystalized under triclinic system with space group P-1. The optoelectronic properties of these compounds have been studied.Molecules 3a, 3b and 3c showed strong absorption maxima wavelengths at 300, 419 and 418 nm, respectively. The molar extinction coefficients (ε) of the compounds 3a, 3b and 3c suggested that molecule 3b has better ability to absorb UV light;molecule 3a has better fluorescence intensity than molecule 3b and 3c. Low energy gaps of HOMO and LUMO energy levels of these compounds suggests that these compounds may be a promising new class of lead compounds for developing high performance semiconductor materials. Compounds 3a, 3b and 3c has emissions near to blue light, a slight modification of the structures by extending conjugation may find important applications in optoelectronic devices as blue light emitters in organic light-emitting devices for the development of new generation organic semiconducting materials.展开更多
