SnS2 nested fullerene-type (IF) nanoparticles, nanotubes, and SnS2/C hybrid nanostructures were obtained by vapor transport starting from elemental tin and CS2. The reaction was carried out in a single-step process by heating elemental tin metal powder in a horizontal tube furnace at 800-1000 degrees C. TEM analysis allowed proposing a plausible mechanism for the formation of fullerene-like particles of SnS2 as well as tubes and scrolls from nanosheets of SnS2. Pure material could be obtained...SnS2 nested fullerene-type (IF) nanoparticles, nanotubes, and SnS2/C hybrid nanostructures were obtained by vapor transport starting from elemental tin and CS2.

TEM analysis allowed proposing a plausible mechanism for the formation of fullerene-like particles of SnS2 as well as tubes and scrolls from nanosheets of SnS2. Pure material could be obtained by optimizing the reaction based on a product analysis using powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) combined with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). » weiterlesen» einklappen
