The microstructure (composition, nonstoichiometry, size and shape of particles) of
nanostructured semiconductor silver sulfide (Ag2S) determines its electronic structure …

Recent observations of facet‐dependent electrical conductivity and photocatalytic activity of
various semiconductor crystals are presented. Then, the discovery of facet‐dependent …

Syntheses of metal and oxide nanocrystals with cubic crystal structures and well-controlled
polyhedral morphologies such as cubic, octahedral, and rhombic dodecahedral shapes …

Sub-to micrometer-sized Ag2O cubes, great rhombicuboctahedra, cuboctahedra, corner-
truncated octahedra, octahedra, and rhombic dodecahedra have been synthesized at room …

In 1998, a monograph “Nanocrystalline Materials: Methods of Production and Properties” by
Gusev [1] was published in Ekaterinburg. The monograph became the first Russian and one …

The results of experimental studies on nanostructured silver sulfide are analyzed and
generalized. The influence of small particle size on nonstoichiometry of silver sulfide is …

Large PbS protruded cubes, edge-and corner-truncated cubes and octahedra, and perfect
octahedra with sizes over 200 nm have been synthesized in aqueous solution. By using two …

Ag2O cubes, truncated octahedra, rhombic dodecahedra, and rhombicuboctahedra were
synthesized in aqueous solution. Two tungsten probes were brought into contact with a …

Two approaches have been employed to generate Cu2O nanoframes. Novel edge-
truncated cubic nanoframes with empty {110} edges can be obtained directly by growing …

Nanostructured silver sulfide is one of the semiconducting chalcogenides most in demand,
due to its unique combination of structure, physical, and chemical properties, and its …
