Solvothermal synthesis of uniform bismuth nanospheres using poly(<it>N</it>-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) as a reducing agent
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Uniform bismuth nanospheres were successfully prepared from bismuth nitrate in the presence of poly(<it>N</it>-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) (PVP) by solvothermal process. The product was characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy,...
