Controllable synthesis of nanocrystalline CdS with different morphologies by hydrothermal process in the presence of thioglycolic acid

Long chain polymer assisted synthesis of flower-like cadmium sulfide nanorods via hydrothermal process

“…Furthermore, a preferential orientation and a rod-like shape were observed in the sample synthesized by PEG200 and 600. The unusual growth of diffraction peak of (0 0 2) indicates a preferential orientation along the c axis and a rod-like shape [6,18]. When the reaction is done by PEG2000, (1 0 0) and (1 0 1) peaks further grow and become sharper and narrower, while the (0 0 2) peak almost keep unchanged (Fig.…”

Synthesis of Nanoparticles via Solvothermal and Hydrothermal Methods

“…This method can also be applied to other sulfides, such as HgS, Ag 2 S, and Bi 2 S 3 [148]. Thioglycolic acid and dithiol glycol can also be used as S sources for the synthesis of CdS NPs via hydrothermal or solvothermal methods [149,150].…”

“…The presence of metal ions and metal oxides such as Fe 3+ and Fe 2 O 3 can significantly catalyze the process of carbonization of carbon precursors. The reaction temperatures usually range from 150 C to 350 C, and the reaction time is between 4 and 24 h. Depending on the precursors, the sizes of the NPs vary from 100 nm to several micrometers.…”

Metal Chalcogenide Nanocrystalline Solid Thin Films

“…30 Nanoscale materials are defined as a set of substances where at least one dimension is less than c.100 nm. During recent years, there has been increasing interest for the II-VI group of semiconductor materials [31][32][33][34][35][36][37] since these are very interesting for their applications in both fundamental and technological aspects. The NPs with varying sizes can be prepared in the form of powder, colloidal solution or thin film.…”
