Abstract
ZnS nanoparticles were synthesized via a simple surfactant free
microwave route. In this synthesis, thioacetamide was used as
sulfur source. The effects of different parameters such as type of
zinc precursor, time and power of irradiation on the morphology
and particle size of the products have been investigated. The
nanostructures were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction
(XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), scanning electron
microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and
photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy.
