Abstract

Precursor-reduction method is employed to synthesize nanostructures of ZnTe. The shape of zinc blende ZnTe nanocrystals could be influenced by reaction temperature, concentration of the precursors as well as the use of stabilizing agent. By controlling the synthetic conditions, three types of nanoscaled ZnTe, quasi-spherical ZnTe nanocrystals, ZnTe nanobelts and ZnTe nanorods have been observed. Their crystalline structures are also discussed.
