Abstract

An easy method for the preparation of trigonal selenium nanowires atroom temperature was developed. The influence of the environmental temperatureon the growth rate and morphology was discussed as an important factor. And theillumination could badly foreclose the shaping of the one-dimensional morphology.Ethylenediamine was selected as solvent to prepare the precursor, amorphous selenium.SEM analyses of the phase-transitional processes at different stages showedthe integrated transformation of morphology. As a result, nanowires with uniformdiameter of about 45 nm were obtained, which was also confirmed by TEM investigations.SAED and XRD pattern demonstrated the as-synthesized nanowires weresingle-crystalline and trigonal phase.
