Synthesis and Characterization of ZnS Nanoparticles by Using Polyvinylpyrrolidone as Stabilizer

Abstract:

A simple synthesis method of PVP (polyvinylpyrrolidone) coated ZnS QDS has been developed. The optical properties and morphology for the as-synthesized ZnS nanoparticles were characterized by UV-Vis absorption spectroscopies and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results show that PVP could act as a better stabilizer for the formation of ZnS nanoparticles in N, N-dimethylformamide. The obtained ZnS nanoparticles have spherical morphology and a narrow size distribution. ZnS nanoparticles could give an apparent extionic absorption peaks and quantum confinement effects.
