Preparation of CdS and ZnS nanoparticles using microwave irradiation

<b>Facile synthesis of CdS nanocrystals using thioglycolic acid as a sulfur source and stabilizer in aqueous solution</b>

“…The water-soluble CdS NCs were prepared in an aqueous solution using thiols as stabilizing agents, which was first reported by Weller's group [4]. Up to now, many methods for preparing CdS NCs in an aqueous solution have been developed [5][6][7][8]. Of them, sodium sulfide [9], thiourea [10] and thioacetamide [11] were often used as sulfur sources.…”

Structural and Optical Properties of Chemically Sprayed ZnS Nanostructure

“…From the x-ray patterns the broadening of the diffraction peaks of the nanoparticles is obvious [18,19] which is characteristic of nanosized by applying Debye-scherrer formula [20]. Where k denotes the Scherrer constant (the shape factor of the average crystallite and can be considered k = 0.90 ¸ λ= 1.5418 Ǻ is the wavelength of the incident Cu Kα radiation, ϴ is the Bragg diffraction angle, and β is the FWHM of the XRD peak appearing at the diffraction angle ϴ.…”

“…Fill Factor indicates the quality of current-voltage characteristics and it depends on the ability of charges to reach the electrodes which is governed by recombination processes. The full factor is directly affected by the values of the cell's series and shunt resistances [9]. The solar cell efficiency is the ratio for outcome power to incident light power density [10].…”
