Abstract

Cubic Cu_1.4S nanoparticles were synthesized on a large scale by laser ablation of salt powder dispersed in an organic solvent. A metastable Cu_1.4S phase was formed at high temperature in a reductive solvent and was maintained at room temperature due to the quenching effect of the pulsed laser. The cubic Cu_1.4S nanoparticles show good stability after being exposed to ambient atmosphere for as long as 1 month.
