Preparation and properties of electrodeposited ternary CdSxSe1-x and ZnxCd1-xS films

Size and Band-Gap Dependences of the First Hyperpolarizability of CdxZn1-xS Nanocrystals

“…The arrows indicate the energy where the first derivative is zero and second derivative is positive. (b) Band-gap energy as a function of the alloy composition for Cd x Zn 1 - x S nanoparticles (circles; this work) and bulk (squares; ref b). The values of x for the nanoparticles refer to the nominal concentration in the solution prior to the coprecipitation.…”

Electrodeposition of Semiconductors

“…While pulsed electrodeposition has been demonstrated by these workers, it does not appear from the literature that is is the preferred electrodeposition method. Edamura and Muto [97] deposited Cu-doped CdS onto ITO galvanostatically at a current density of 1.4 mA cm À2 using dimethylsulfoxide solutions at 120 C containing CdCl 2 (0.055 M), elemental sulfur (0.19 M), and CuCl 2 (up to 1 mM). These workers obtained films of hexagonal crystallites with preferred c-axis orientation and with decreasing grain size as Cu content increased.…”

“…CdS x Se 1Àx and Zn x Cd 1Àx S have also been electrodeposited [97]. These films were deposited onto ITO glass substrates in dimethylsulfoxide electrolyte solution.…”

Ternary cadmium and zinc sulfides and selenides: electrodeposition by ECALE and electrochemical characterization

“…Different methods have been proposed for the growth of ternary compounds: chemical transport [1], electrodeposition [2][3][4], chemical bath deposition [5,6], metalorganic vapor deposition [7], dip technique [8], chemical capping [9], evaporation [10][11][12], and successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) [13,14]. A more general survey of the literature is given in [14].…”
