STUDY OF TIN SELENIDE MECHANOCHEMICAL SYNTHESIS
Abstract
Tin selenide SnSe was synthesized from tin and selenium powder precursors by high- energy milling in pl anetary ball mill. X-ray diffractio n analysis confirmed that an orthorhombic tin selenide SnSe phase was formed already after 4 min of milling. 119Sn Mössbauer spectroscopy documented the values of SnSe isomer shifts corresponded to Sn in the oxidation state II. The size and morphology of tin selenide particles were studied by specific surface area measuremen ts, and transmission electron microscopy. Specific surface area of tin selenides increased with increasing time of mechanochemical synthesis. According to the transmission electron microscopy observations mechanochemically synthesized SnSe forms crystals from 5 nm to 500 nm with plate-like morphology. SnSe nanoparticles show a good absorption in the visible region of UV-Vis-NIR optical spectra and th ey evidence indirect and direct type of transition in the lattice.
