The hydrothermal evolution of the phase and shape of ZnS nanostructures and their gas-sensing properties†
Abstract
This work presents the evolution of the phase and shape of ZnS along the hydrothermal holding time or the dosage of the surfactant. The ZnS sensor obviously showed phase-/defect-dependent gas-sensing performances indicating that the wurtzite-type structure, as well the defect will improve its gas-sensing activities.
