Abstract
Zn(salen) nano-complex was synthesized by facile hydro/solvothermal route in water as green solvent at various times and temperatures without using any surfactant or capping agent. The morphology of the products varied from irregular microcrystals to nanosheets by adjusting the temperature and time of the reaction. Based on the growth process with respect to the morphological structure, a novel growth mechanism is revealed which involves a unique multistep pathway, including reaction–nucleation, aggregation, crystallization, dissolution–recrystallization, and Ostwald ripening. The photoluminescence properties of the compounds were also examined and exhibited strong fluorescence emissions.
期刊介绍：
The journal offers a common reference and publication source for workers engaged in research on the experimental and theoretical aspects of crystal growth and its applications, e.g. in devices. Experimental and theoretical contributions are published in the following fields: theory of nucleation and growth, molecular kinetics and transport phenomena, crystallization in viscous media such as polymers and glasses; crystal growth of metals, minerals, semiconductors, superconductors, magnetics, inorganic, organic and biological substances in bulk or as thin films; molecular beam epitaxy, chemical vapor deposition, growth of III-V and II-VI and other semiconductors; characterization of single crystals by physical and chemical methods; apparatus, instrumentation and techniques for crystal growth, and purification methods; multilayer heterostructures and their characterisation with an emphasis on crystal growth and epitaxial aspects of electronic materials. A special feature of the journal is the periodic inclusion of proceedings of symposia and conferences on relevant aspects of crystal growth.
