Synthesis of InSb nanocrystals in an air atmosphere and their photocatalytic activity from near-infrared to ultra-violet
© 2017 Elsevier Ltd We report a new facile route to prepare indium antimonide (InSb) nanocrystals (NCs) in air and at ambient pressure. Spherical cubic zinc blende InSb NCs with an average size of 5 nm were synthesized and spontaneously separated through a rapid microwave-assisted one-pot reaction....
