Abstract

Water-soluble Sb2S3 sub-microspheres were synthesized by aqueous-phase arrested precipitation using mercaptoacetic acid as capping agent and thioacetamide (TAA) as sulfur source. The effects of the experimental conditions, such as temperature, sulfur source, reactants concentration and reaction time, on the shapes, structures and properties of the products were studied. FESEM, TEM showed the products have uniform size distribution. In addition, ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry (UV-vis) and photoluminescence (PL) showed the resulting products have excellent optical properties.
