A complexation mediated route was applied for the preparation of lead sulfide nanoparticles, where 4-fluoroaniline was served the role of a ligand and also as a stabilizer of the particles. The detail NMR characterization of the ligand and products are available in the supporting information (Table S1 and Figs. S1, S2). The TEM images, Fig. 1A,B, with different magnifications, of the fluoroaniline stabilized lead sulfide displayed the spherical shaped lead sulfide particles (dark spots) within the size range of 8–12 nm, presented using a histogram, Fig. 1A, inset. The selected area electron diffraction (SAED) pattern of lead sulfide displayed in Fig. 1B, inset, obtained from the groups of particles.Figure 1The transmission electron microscope images of the fluoroaniline stabilized lead sulfide nanoparticles with different magnifications (A, B). The inset image in (A) represent…
