One-pot synthesis of cubic ZnSe entangled nanowires and hexagonal Se nanorods†
Abstract
Se nanorods, ZnSe nanowires and their mixture can be prepared by a single process at different reaction temperatures between 300 to 360 °C. The Se nanorods are generally longer than 1 μm, while the ZnSe nanowires have an entangled structure and have a diameter and length of 15–20 nm and 0.3–2 μm, respectively.
