ABSTRACT
A simple organic amine-assisted hydrothermal process has been proposed to simultaneously realize the synthesis and assembly of copper
sulfide nanoparticles at low temperature (90 110 C). Nanowire-like aggregates (average diameter of 120 nm and length of 2 m) assembled
by digenite phase copper sulfide nanoparticles have been synthesized with triethylenediamine (TEDA) as a linking agent. Nanotube-like aggregates
(diameter ranging from 40 to 200 nm and length from 400 nm to 4 m) and nanovesicle-like aggregates (size ranging from 50 to 180 nm),
assembled by djurleite phase copper sulfide nanoparticles, have also been obtained by substituting tramethylethylenediamine (TMEA) and
di-n-butylamine (DBA) for TEDA, respectively.
