Synthesis of crystalline TNS nanowires using solid-state growth. (a) Schematic of TNS nanowire growth via the solid-state reaction. (b) Photograph of the ampoule containing TNS nanowires after synthesis. (c) SEM image of the TNS turf roll after removing from the ampule, showing a cross-section relative to the ampule’s longitudinal direction (Scotch tape is attached to the perimeter to maintain the shape of the turf roll). (d) SEM image of the unfolded TNS turf roll (obtained by stitching 64 SEM images) showing the overall size of grown TNS nanowire turf. (e) Side view of the turf roll section shown in (d).
