ZnO/CdS nanocomposites: Synthesis, structure and morphology
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract Uncoated ZnO, CdS and ZnO/CdS nanocomposites were successfully synthesized chemically in atmospheric air using a water–ethanol matrix. The as-obtained samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV–vis and photoluminescence (PL) spectrophotometry. The luminescence measurements of ZnO/CdS nanocomposites showed narrow and enhanced PL emission in the blue region. PL quenching was observed in ZnO/CdS nanocomposites by increasing Cd and S concentrations.
