Abstract

Herein, we report that synthesis of ZnS/Bi2S3 and Bi2S3/ZnS core-shell nanostructure prepared by ‘one-pot’ chemical method. We have studied the effect of structural, morphological, optical and thermal properties by exchanging the inner and outer layer of core-shell nanoparticles. The samples were studied using various characterization techniques such as XRD, TEM, FTIR, UV–Vis, Photoluminescence and TG-DTA. The XRD and TEM results demonstrated that the synthesized core-shell nanoparticles were in cubic (ZnS)-orthorhombic (Bi2S3) mixed crystal structures with a diameter of 18.6 nm and 16.3 nm with extremely monodispersing. The obtained result provides a new and simple route for synthesis of sulfide-based core-shell nanoparticles with high crystal quality.
