Abstract
We describe a general approach for the synthesis of micro-/nanostructured metal chalcogenides from elemental precursors. The excellent solubility of sulfur, selenium, and tellurium in phosphonium ionic liquids promotes fast reactions between chalcogens and various metal powders upon microwave heating, giving crystalline products. This approach is green, universal, and scalable.
