Ambient S annealing was adopted to regulate the crystallinity of a ZnS microsphere, which resulted in a significant improvement in the photocatalytic hydrogen production activity (PHPA). Moreover, with S ambient treatment, wurtzite ZnS showed better PHPA than sphalerite ZnS, possibly because the inter-polar electric field of the wurtzite phase could promote the separation of photo-excited elect...

Hexagonal wurtzite ZnS nanowires radially arrayed on cubic zinc-blende ZnS hollow spheres have been successfully achieved for the first time, and such novel heterogeneous ZnS hollow urchin-like hierarchical nanostructures show greatly enhanced photocatalytic properties due to their two-phase enhanced light-harvesting and high surface-to-volume ratio.

A ZnS(Ag) detector was successfully used in the direct detection of alpha particles from aqueous solutions and the results were compared to the passivated ion implanted planar silicon (PIPS) continuous air monitor (CAM) detector. The ZnS(Ag) detector is recommended for on-line detection of gross alpha radioactivity from highlevel liquid waste process streams; however, the detector suffers from ...

Pure and copper doped ZnS nanoparticles in powder form were prepared by wet chemical route method by using thioglycerol as a capping agent. The XRD studies indicate that the samples are cubic in nature. The thermoluminescence (TL) behavior of pure and copper doped ZnS has been studied for fixed 10 min UV exposure time; TL glow curve shows a single peak at 165.1°C and 184.3°C temperature respect...

The preparation and characterization of heterojunction solar cell with ZnS nanocrystals synthesized by chemical bath deposition method were studied in this work. The ZnS nanocrystals were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). Lower reflectance spectra were found as the annealing temperature of ZnS film increased on the textured p-...

Recently, zonisamide (ZNS) has been approved as a new adjunctive therapy for motor complications of Parkinson's disease (PD). More recently, ZNS was reported to be effective for the management of impulse control behavior in PD, suggesting potential effects on non-motor PD symptoms. Dream enactment associated with aggressive, violent behavior can carry a serious risk of injury to patients, as we...

Semiconducting zinc sulphide (ZnS) has been demonstrated that is an excellent candidate for substituting the possible toxic materials as CdS as n-type material on optoelectronic devices, and photocatalytic materials. The Chemical Bath Deposition technique (CBD) is very simple: it requires temperatures below 100°C, a reactor that can be a beaker and the reaction can be carried out at atmospheric...

ZnS nanostructures with different morphologies of submicrospheres, nanosheets and nanorods were synthesized by solution precipitation of thiourea with Zn(NO(3))(2) in the presence of block copolymer at low temperature. The sizes and morphologies of ZnS can be controlled simply by changing the processing parameters. The results show that the ZnS submicrospheres are of 250-500 nm in diameter, nan...
