Abstract:
AgInSe2 nanorods with a previously unknown orthorhombic phase isostructural to AgInS2 have been prepared by the thermolysis of [(PPh3)2AgIn(SeC{O}Ph)4] in a mixture of oleylamine (OA) and dodecanethiol (DT) at 185 degrees C. A systematic study indicates that the ratio of surfactants is crucial for obtaining both monodispersed nanorods and the new orthorhombic phase AgInSe2. The AgInSe2 nanorods have been characterized by TEM, XRPD, EDX, and XPS.
