Abstract:Abstract:In order to synthesize Bi 2 Se 3 nanopowders by a solvothermal synthesis method, ethylenediamine, dimethylformamide, acetone, absolute ethanol, and deionized water were respectively used as a solvent, using BiCl 3 and elemental Se powders as starting materials and KBH 4 as a reductant at 180 o C for different times. X-ray diffraction was used for examining the phase composition of the products. The results showed that pure Bi 2 Se 3 nanopowders were successfully synthesized only when deionized water w… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
