Abstract
Nanomaterials (NMs) based on cadmium telluride (CdTe) are the theme of numerous research areas due to their unique chemical and physical properties. NM synthesis via a size-controlled procedure has become an intriguing research topic because NMs exhibit novel optical and physical properties depending on their size and shape. In this study, we prepared CdTe nanowires (NWs) via self-assembly from individual Nanoparticles (NPs). Thioglycolic acid (TGA)-to-Cd ion ratio of 1.3 was used instead of the traditional value of 2.4 and the reduced amount of stabilizer resulted in reorganization from individual NPs into NWs consisting of multi-layers of individual NPs. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were performed to characterize NWs. The produced nanowires were straight and long in shape and their length ranged from 500 nm to tens of micrometers.
