Abstract

Bi₂S₃ nanofibers with a diameter less than 10 nm and lengths ranging from 400 to 1000 nm were successfully prepared by a convenient solution route at 90 °C by using BiCl₃ and thiourea as the starting materials. The product was characterized by XRD, XPS, and TEM techniques. It was found that anionic surfactant C₁₇H₃₃COOK played an important role in controlling the morphology of the product. The formation of the nanofibers could be well explained by the accordion-like folding mechanism.
