Abstract
In this paper, four petals flowers‐like and quasi sphere‐like PbS nanostructures were successfully synthesized by an environment friendly organic molten salt solvent (OMSS) route at 200 °C, with different sulfur sources, e.g. thiourea and sodium thiosulfate, respectively. The as‐synthesized products were characterized by X‐ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), UV–vis absorption spectrum and photoluminescence (PL) spectrum, respectively. It was shown that four petals flowers‐like and quasi sphere‐like PbS nanocrystals were formed. It was also demonstrated that the morphologies of PbS nanocrystals were significantly influenced by different sulfur sources. The ultraviolet‐visible absorption peaks of PbS nanocrystals exhibited a large blue‐shift and the luminescence spectra had strong and broad emission bands centered at 488 nm and 492 nm. The possible formation mechanisms of the PbS nanostructures were discussed. The organic molten salt solvent (OMSS) method is preferable for synthesizing high‐quality PbS nanocrystals.
