Abstract
Zinc powder reacts with equivalent elemental selenium in solvent ethylenedi amine at 120 degrees C for 6 h to form a complex, which is converted to ZnS e nanoparticles by pyrolysis or protonization. X-ray diffraction results su ggest that the as-formed products have wurtzite structure. Transmission ele ctron microscopy observation show that particles with spherical and laminar morphology were produced by pyrolysis and protonization, respectively. The formation of ZnSe nanoparticles is also investigated by infrared and therm al analysis.
