METHOD FOR THE SYNTHESIS OF NANOCRYSTALLITES AND NANOCRYSTALLITES THUS PRODUCED

摘要

The invention relates to nanocrystalline HgSe and HgTe obtained from a solution wherein Hg(SRSUP1/SUP)SUB2/SUB and E(SRSUP2/SUP)SUB2/SUB, where E = SE, Te, and RSUP1/SUP, RSUP2/SUP= alkyl or aralkyl groups, are mixed in a solvent, at room temperature. Said solvent is, for example, toluene, and the disulfides RSUP1/SUPSSRSUP2 /SUPas byproducts can be reduced to thiols.
