Synthesis and characterization of Cu2S nanostructures via hydrothermal method by a polymeric precursor;

چکیده مقاله

Abstract Cu2S nanostructures were synthesized successfully via hydrothermal approach with new precursor. The precursor was characterized via Thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The products were characterized with X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transition electron microscopy (TEM), Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDAX), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), room temperature photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL) and ultraviolet–visible (UV–Vis) spectroscopy. The effect of different parameters such as Cu2+/TGA mole ratio, reaction time and temperature were investigated on product size and morphology.
