“…Hexagonal phase has been observed in both the bulk and the nanocrystalline CdS, while cubic and rock-salt phases have been observed only in nanocrystalline CdS [17]. The nanoparticles of CdS can be grown by different physical and chemical methods such as laser ablation, thermal evaporation, chemical vapor deposition, electrochemical reactions, melting nucleation approach, sol-gel, co-precipitation, solvothermal, spray pyrolysis, dip coating, spin coating and chemical bath deposition (CBD) [18][19][20][21][22][23][24]. In the present communication, we describe the synthesis of nanocrystalline CdS thin films via CBD technique.…”
