Abstract

Abstract A novel solvothermal-reduction pathway (SRP) to nanocrystalline metal tellurides (MTe, M = Zn, Pb) has been established by the reaction of metal salts with tellurium in various solvents in the presence of hydrazine hydrate(N2H4·H2O) as a reducing agent. Nanocrystallites with different morphologies such as cube particles and similar-rectangular flakes were obtained under mild conditions. The effects of solvents and temperature on the reactions were investigated.
