• PbSe is obtained in a simple way by the co-precipitation method at low-temperature.
• The structural, morphological and optical properties of PbSe were studied.
• Adding NH4OH to the precursor solutions influences on the morphology.
• 2D- and 1D-PbSe structures assemble by oriented attachment.
• PbSe can be a potential candidate for thermoelectric applications.
This work presents a simple and low-temperature method to prepare a variety of Lead selenide (PbSe) nanostructures, using aqueous solutions of Pb(NO3)2 and NaHSe. Nanostructures with different morphology were obtained by varying the Pb:Se molar ratio, as well as the mixing sequence of NH4OH with either Pb(NO3)2 or NaHSe. Nanoparticles with different shapes (spherical and octahedral), and self-assembled structures (flakes and ribbons) were observed by Transmission Electron Microscopy. X-ray results confirmed that the PbSe rock-salt crystalline structure was obtained for all of the prepared samples. The crystal size is in the order of 7.3 to 8.9 nm for single nanocrystals. The absorption spectra of the samples show exciton absorption bands at 1395 nm and 1660 nm. This material could be used to develop more advanced structures for thermoelectric generators.
