Abstract
A one-step, solid-state reaction route was developed to synthesize copper sulfide (CuS) nanorods via grinding Cu(NO 3) 2·3H 2O and Na 2S·9H 2O in existence of ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid disodium salt (Na 2EDTA·2H 2O) at ambient temperature. The as-prepared CuS nanorods have diameters of 5∼7 nm, lengths up to 40∼70 nm. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were used to characterize the obtained product. A possible reaction mechanism was discussed at the end of this article.
