AI Article Synopsis
- The use of amorphous selenium (Se) nanoparticles is restricted because their production methods are complicated and they can quickly change phases, making them unstable.
- A new, simple, and environmentally friendly one-pot method has been developed to create these nanoparticles.
- This method not only allows for better control over the shape and phase of the Se nanoparticles but also extends their stability from a few minutes or days to several months.
Article Abstract
Applications of amorphous Se nanoparticles (NPs) are limited due to their meticulous synthetic procedures and rapid phase transformation leading to low stability. A highly facile one-pot green method is being reported, wherein apart from tuning the morphology and the phase of the Se NPs, their stabilization could be prolonged to months as compared to a few minutes-to-days, known hitherto.
