Chemical and physical reactions during the low temperature aqueous chemical synthesis of nanostructured Bi2Te3 powders were investigated in situ by pH measurement and color observation of the solution and X-ray diffraction analysis of the powders. It was found that Bi2Te3 could be synthesized only in a strong alkaline solution. Bi2Te3 nanocapsules have been synthesized by the aqueous chemical route at 65 ℃ with the addition of disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate salt. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy observation indicates that the nanocapsules are hollow structured with a wall thickness of about 6 nm.
