Abstract

For the first time, silver salicylate marked as [Ag(HSal)] was applied to fabricate silver selenide nanoparticles. This article describes a simple approach based on reaction between silver salicylate as an inorganic precursor, SeCl4, and hydrazine hydrate (N2H4.H2O) via sonochemical route for the fabrication of silver selenide (Ag2Se) nanoparticles. The effect of preparation parameters such as pH, ultrasonic power, and reaction temperature on the morphology of the final products was investigated. Ag2Se nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS).
