Halide-driven polymorph selectivity in the synthesis of MnX (X = S, Se) nanoparticles

“…In regard to the first point, the wurtzite to rock salt phase transition temperature is ∼280 °C. 57 In fact, other groups have reported polymorph selectivity for MnS using temperature as synthetic handle. Jun and co-workers were able to obtain zb/wz MnS from the decomposition of manganese( ii ) diethyldithiocarbamate in hexadecylamine in the range of 120–180 °C, whereas temperatures above 200 °C gave the rs structure.…”

Nitrogen stabilizes the wurtzite polymorph in ZnSe1−xTex thin films

“…ZnSe could be the threshold case for observing WZ. 1 However, sputter-deposited chalcogenide alloy thin films are well known to host interesting and complex structural polymorphs, [26][27][28][29] motivating investigation into N-doped ZnSe 1Àx Te x made by sputtering.…”
