Abstract
Chalcogenide (As-S-Se) micro/nanostructures have been successfully synthesized using thermal evaporation-condensation method in evacuated glass ampoule. The nanowires have diameter ranging from 10 to 20 nm and they are few microns in length. The structures are characterized using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) and X Ray Diffraction (XRD) for their morphology, composition and structure respectively. These nanowires show promising applications in the field of nanoelectronics and nanophotonics.
