“…Bi 2 S 3 is a kind of semiconductors with an E g of 1.3 eV [4]. Bi 2 S 3 has potential applications including photovoltaics [5], IR spectroscopy [6] and thermoelectrics [7,8]. Many techniques including hydrothermal [9,10] solvothermal [11][12][13] biomolecule assisted method [14] thermal decomposition, ionic liquid-assisted templating route [15], photochemical synthesis method [16], sonochemical [17], template-synthesis methods [18] and microwave [19] have been applied to prepare Bi 2 S 3 nanoparticles or superstructures.…”

PbS and Bi 2 S 3 nanostructures were synthesized successfully via a microwave approach. For synthesis of PbS nanoparticles, a new precursor, [bis(salisylate) lead (II)]; [Pb(Hsal) 2 ] was used. The products were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and photoluminescence spectroscopy. Thin film of Bi 2 S 3 was prepared by doctor's blade technique and solar cell made from ITO/Bi 2 S 3 /PbS/Pt layers. I-V characterization was investigated for this cell and fill factor, open circuit voltage and short circuit current values were obtained.

“…[5] The availability of Bi 2 S 3 nanostructures with well-controlled morphology and dimension should be able to bring in new types of applications or enhance the performance of the currently existing device as a result of quantum-sized effects. So the synthesis of 1D nanostructures of Bi 2 S 3 should be of great significance.…”

This article describes a facile solvothermal method by using mixed solvents for the large-scale synthesis of Bi(2)S(3) nanoribbons with lengths of up to several millimeters. These nanoribbons were formed by a solvothermal reaction between Bi(III)-glycerol complexes and various sulfur sources in a mixed solution of aqueous NaOH and glycerol. HRTEM (high-resolution transmission electron microscopy) and SAED (selective-area electron diffraction) studies show that the as-synthesized nanoribbons had predominately grown along the [001] direction. The Bi(2)S(3) nanoribbons prepared by the use of different sulfur sources have a common formation process: the initial formation of NaBiS(2) polycrystals, which serve as the precursors to Bi(2)S(3), the decomposition of NaBiS(2), and the formation of Bi(2)S(3) seeds in the solution through a homogeneous nucleation process; the growth of Bi(2)S(3) nanoribbons occurs at the expense of NaBiS(2) materials. The growth mechanism of millimeter-scale nanoribbons involves a special solid-solution-solid transformation as well as an Ostwald ripening process. Some crucial factors affect nanoribbon growth, such as, solvothermal temperature, volume ratio of glycerol to water, and the concentration of NaOH; these have also been discussed.

“…[5] It also belongs to a family of solid-state materials with applications in thermoelectric cooling technologies based on the Peltier effect. [6] Conventionally, Bi 2 S 3 is prepared by direct element reaction in a quartz vessel at high temperature. [7] The chemical deposition method has been applied to prepare Bi 2 S 3 by the reaction of bismuth salt complexes with triethanolamine or ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) with an aqueous solution containing a sulfur source, such as thioacetamide, thiourea, sodium thiosulfate, or gaseous H 2 S.…”

Ultralong Bi2S3 nanoribbons have been synthesized by a solvothermal process, using a mixture of aqueous NaOH solution and glycerol as the solvent. These nanoribbons (see Figure) are 50–300 nm wide, 20–80 nm thick, and up to several millimeters long, and the initial formation of the precursor polycrystalline NaBiS2 phase is crucial to their formation. The nucleation and growth process was interpreted as a solid–solution–solid transformation.
