Facile synthesis of silica-coated Bi2S3 nanorods and hollow silica nanotubes

摘要

Silica coated bismuth sulfide (Bi2S3) nanorods have been prepared by a simple coating process. The coating resulted in the improved stability and luminescent intensity of the Bi2S3 nanorods. Hollow silica nanotubes were also obtained by using Bi2S3 nanorods as a removal template. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
