Spherical ZnS based nanoparticles (hierarchical architectures) were successfully synthesized using Zinc bis(salicyle aldehitato), Zn(Sal)(2), thioacetamide (TAA) and thioglycolic acid (TGA) as Zn2+, sulfur source and capping agent, respectively. The hierarchical ZnS structure was produced from the self-assembly of nanoparticles with diameters of 21 +/- 4 nm. The products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), selected area electron diffraction (SAED), and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra. The influence of temperature on the morphology of the products was also investigated. The possible formation mechanism and optical properties of these architectures were also reported.
