Crooked Ag2Te nanowires with rough surfaces: Facile microwave-assisted solution synthesis, growth mechanism, and electrical performances

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Crooked Ag2Te nanowires with rough surfaces have been successfully fabricated via a one-pot microwave-assisted solution process in a short time. A possible formation mechanism related to the oriented attachment crystal growth mechanism and the incomplete Ostwald ripening process is presented. The obtained Ag2Te shows a maximum power factor of about 13.4 × 10-4 W m-1 K-2.
