Electrical properties of electrodeposited CdS nanowires

Synthesis, Characterizations and Applications of Cadmium Chalcogenide Nanowires: A Review

“…Besides AAO templates, other templates have also been utilized for guiding nanowire growth, but they are not as efficient as AAO templates in terms of sizes and shapes regulation. For example, CdS nanowires have been fabricated by hexagonal liquid crystal templates [41] , micelle-template [42] , and polymer ion track template [43,44] . CdSe nanowires have been synthesized by using DNA [45] and polycarbonate membranes [46] .…”

Track-etch membranes enabled nano-/microtechnology: A review

“…Team led by Prof. Charles Martin at Colorado State University, USA, has been actively engaged in exploring exploiting the TS for its full potential and a large number of reports are available (see refs in Huczko, 2000). Researchers at GSI at Darmstadt, Germany (where this author has had also his first hand-on experience with the technique of TS for a short duration during early nineties), have also many reports to their credit for developing the technique further and generating nano-/microstructures (see, for example, Spohr, 1990;Ghenescu et al, 2008;Tazlaoanu et al, 2008;Toimil et al, 2001;Liu et al, 2005;Dobrev et al, 1999). A large bulk of literature since then has been published on the negative TS and its applications (see refs in Chakarvarti and Vetter, 1998;Huczko, 2000;Martin, 1994).…”

Electrical Properties of Electrodeposited ZnCuTe Ternary Nanowires Embedded in Polycarbonate Membrane

“…The electrical properties of II-VI compound semiconductor nanostructures such as ZnTe [7][8][9], ZnS [10], CdS [9,[11][12], and CdTe [9][10]13] have been studied widely and have established their applications in nanoscale optoelectronics and photovoltaic technology. Their properties make them an important class of materials and competing candidates for silicon and other semiconductor materials in photovoltaic and optoelectronic applications.…”
