Abstract

Copper sulfide nanoparticles have been synthesized from copper salicylate and thioglycolic acid by a hydrothermal method. The obtained product was analyzed by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and photoluminescence spectroscopy. The effect of reaction time, temperature, solvent and sulfur sources was investigated.
