Pressure-Controlled Fabrication of Stibnite Nanorods by the Solvothermal Decomposition of a Simple Single-Source Precursor
TLDR
In this article, a simple single-source precursor to stibnite (Sb2S3) synthesized from SbCl3 and thiourea in methanol was characterized.Abstract:
A simple single-source precursor to stibnite (Sb2S3) synthesized from SbCl3 and thiourea in methanol was characterized. The thermal decomposition of the precursor in polar solvents resulted in the formation of one-dimensional Sb2S3 nanocrystallites with the growth direction along the c axis. It is found that the as-prepared Sb2S3 nanorods are formed through the spontaneous connection of adjacent particles. The pressure in the solvothermal process plays an important role in the formation of the nanorods.read more

Surfactant-assisted synthesis of α-Fe2O3 nanotubes and nanorods with shape-dependent magnetic properties
TL;DR: Significantly, the magnetic investigations show that the magnetic properties are strongly shape-dependent; i.e., the nanorods have a Morin transition at 166 K from canted antiferromagnetic state to antiferromeagnetic state, while the nanotubes exhibit a three-dimensional magnetic ordering above 300 K that has been attributed to the presence of small particles in a few regions of the tubes.
