摘要
A non-hydrolytic single-molecular precursor approach to dispersable nanocrystals of ZnO and ZnS by means of thermal decomposition of zinc(II) Cupferron complex (ZnCup(2)) in alkylamines, using suitable reaction atmosphere is reported. The obtained ZnO and ZnS nanocrystals were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and UV-Vis spectroscopy. Structural and optical studies on these semiconductor nanocrystals apparently reveal that the decomposition of ZnCup(2) under Ar atmosphere can yield ZnO nanocrystals; on the other hand, ZnS nanocrystals can be obtained under H,S atmosphere.
