Oleic acid assisted formation mechanism of CuInS sub(2) nanocrystals with tunable structures

Distinct from the popular opinion that only the zinc-blende CuInS sub(2) phase could be prepared in the presence of oleic acid (OA), CuInS sub(2) nanocrystals with different phase structures and shapes were synthesized by a facile heat-up method through simply adjusting the OA dosage. Zinc-blende Cu...

Description
Summary:Distinct from the popular opinion that only the zinc-blende CuInS sub(2) phase could be prepared in the presence of oleic acid (OA), CuInS sub(2) nanocrystals with different phase structures and shapes were synthesized by a facile heat-up method through simply adjusting the OA dosage. Zinc-blende CuInS sub(2) quantum dots (QDs) with a triangular pyramidal shape were obtained at a low dosage of OA (
