The multi-armed CdS architectures can be synthesized from the reaction of the anhydrous CdCl2 and sulfur powders in ethylenediamine, in which a simple one-step reactant–solvent synchronous (RSS) co-assisted effect was proposed to be responsible to the growth of the multi-armed structures. The as-prepared products were characterized by XRD, XPS and TEM. In addition, their optical properties were also shown by UV–vis and fluorescence spectrum. FT-IR spectrum indicated that the dissociation of ethylenediamine molecule absorbed on the surface of CdS resulted in the formation of intermediate CdS(en)m−n cores and thus provided the condition for the anisotropy growth of CdS. The present technique may give a clue to grow the one-dimensional nano-sized semiconductors by the proper choice of the reactant and the solvent.
