Current work presents a study about the effect of polyaniline (PANI) as an organic semiconductor on the photocatalytic performance of ZnSe nanoparticles (NPs). Pristine ZnSe NPs and ZnSe/PANI nanocomposites were synthesized by a simple and cost-effective co-precipitation method in the ambient condit...
