Abstract: Experimental results obtained in recent years on the synthesis, structure and properties of nanostructured zinc sulfide are summarized and analyzed. The crystal polymorphs of zinc sulfide and methods for the synthesis of zinc sulfide as quantum dots, nanospheres, doped nanoparticles, thin films and heteronanostructures with different morphology are described. The attention is focused on the emission and semiconductor properties of the title compound. The potential applications of zinc sulfide-based nanostructures are considered.
