title: Nanostructures of bismuth sulphide: synthesis and electrical properties.
abstract: Bismuth ammonium citrate complex (C24H20Bi4O28 x 6NH3 x 10H2O) interacted with sodium sulphide (Na2S) in presence of beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) yielding Bi2S3 nanospheres. Solvothermal treatment of the bismuth complex and dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) produced Bi2S3 nanorods. Reaction conditions were optimized to investigate the morphology evolution of the product. Electrical properties of the nanorods were monitored in details.
