Abstract

Antimony sulfide (Sb2S3) was successfully synthesized from antimony chloride (SbCl3) and sodium thiosulfate pentahydrate (Na2S2O3·5H2O) in ethylene glycol (EG) without using any template by a facile wet‐chemical method. X‐ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) show that the products were orthorhombic Sb2S3 nanorods forming the coral‐like, straw‐tied‐like, and flower‐like architectures with the nanorods growing along the [001] direction. The energy gap (Eg) was determined by UV‐visible absorption to be 1.52 eV.
