ZnS nanowires and their coaxial lateral nanowire heterostructures with BN

ZnS nanowires and their coaxial lateral BN nanowire heterostructures with a length of hundreds of micrometers and an average diameter of 300 nm were fabricated via one-step chemical vapor deposition method. Wurtzite ZnS nanowires were coated by a shell of fluffylike hexagonal BN sheets distributed randomly. Thermogravimetric analysis indicates that the heterostructures have a much better o…
