Synthesis of Sulfide Nanowire Arrays through Template-Assisted Electrodeposition

Sulfide nanowire arrays have been synthesized by DC electrodeposition from an electrolyte containing S in DMSO. The AAO membrane with the barrier layer has been directly used as template in electrodeposition. The as-synthesized products are characterized by SEM, TEM and resonance Raman spectroscopy. CdS and ZnS nanowires have been obtained, respectively.
