Structural and Optical Properties of ZnO-CdO Nanocomposite Using Electrodeposition Method

Abstract

ZnO,CdO,ZnO-CdO nanocomposite were prepared using electrochemical deposition the prepared samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction and the photoluminenscence spectroscopy (PL) to get the surface morphology leading to calculation of optical energy gap .the grain size determined by Scherrer's equation (22-25) nm .through the calculation of Eg ,it was noticed a red shift behavior in ZnO manner due to addition of CdO content

ZnO/CuO/CdS Heterojunction Nanostructures as N-P-N for Optoelectronic Applications Effectiveness of Optoelectronic Devices

“…Where: D is the crystallite size, λ is the X-ray wavelength, β is the diffraction line broadening, measured at full width at half maximum (FWHM), and θ is the diffraction angle (deg). The crystallite size and other parameters (broadening, and dislocation density) for ZnO, CuO, CdS [14] are shown in Table (1).…”
