Transition metal chalcogenides are important materials due to their many useful properties. Here, for the first time, we have successfully synthesized P-Cu2WSe4(CWSe) nanosheets by a simple and inexpensive hot-injection process. Morphology, structure composition and optical properties of the synthesized nanosheets were analyzed by XRD, TEM, AFM, EDX, FTIR and UV–Visible absorption characterization techniques. Characterization results show that the nanosheets were observed with good crystallinity and lacking of impurity. This work demonstrates that P-Cu2WSe4nanostructures can be synthesized through a facile and simple hot-injection method. These results lead to the possibility of synthesizing a new generation of nanosheets with minimized reaction time and required pressure as alternative energy conversion materials.
