Abstract:Lead sulfide (PbS) with various morphologies including nanoparticle, microrod, octahedral, cubic, sixarmed microstar, dendrite structure and hexagonal disc were synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. The synthesis variables such as the pH of solution, kind of surfactant, reaction temperature and time were observed to influence the final shape of PbS microstructures. The structure and morphology of obtained products were characterized by using X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scan… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
