Solution-phase template approach for the synthesis of Cu(2)S nanoribbons.
In this paper, we have developed a solution-phase template approach to synthesize Cu(2)S nanoribbons for the first time. Bi(2)S(3) nanoribbons act as both template and reactant when treated with small CuCl particles, generating Cu(2)S nanoribbons with the assistance of the solvent ethanol. Nanoribbons with different compositions of Bi(2)S(3) and Cu(2)S also could be obtained through controlling the reaction time. This kind of template method is expected to be a general template approach due to its slow reaction rate and simplicity.
