Cubic structure of spherical ZnS nanoparticles with relatively small size and narrow size distribution were synthesized via microwave-hydrothermal (M-H) and microwave-polyol (M-P) methods from zinc acetate and thioacetamide as starting materials. Distilled water and ethylene glycol were used as solv...
