“…The synthesis process follows the usual solvothermal route similar to the process described in the literature. 17,18 All the powders were prepared at 180°C furnace temperature for 5 h reaction time. For each of the binary (ZnS and ZnSe) and ternary alloy films (with x = 0.41, 0.51 and 0.91), the respective evaporation sources, i.e., ZnS and ZnSe powders and ZnS-ZnSe composite powders, were synthesized using different molar ratios of the anion salts to vary the relative concentrations of Se and S atoms in the alloy.…”

ZnS x Se 1Àx (x = 0, 0.41, 0.51, 0.91, 1) ternary alloy thin films with variable structural, optical and vibrational properties were prepared by thermal evaporation of solvothermally synthesized ZnS-ZnSe nanocomposite powders. The deposited films were uniform and have zinc-blende structure with (111) orientation. Variation of lattice parameter with composition was slightly nonlinear with a bowing parameter of 0.12 Å . Spin orbit (SO) splitting of the valence band was observed in binary ZnSe and ternary samples with large Se atomic concentration such as ZnS 0.41 Se 0.59 and ZnS 0.51 Se 0.49 . The SO splitting energy decreases as the Se atomic concentration in the alloy decreases. Two phonon modes (corresponding to ZnS and ZnSe bonds) behavior were observed in the Raman spectra of the ternary alloys. The observed phonon mode frequencies shifted with changes in Se atomic concentration in agreement with theroretical predictions. Gap mode vibration of Se in ZnS lattice was also observed at 221 cm À1 in the ternary sample with small Se atomic concentration (ZnS 0.91 Se 0.09 ), which also matches closely with theoretically calculated values.

“…In these cases, CdS nanorods or nanowires have been synthesized in ethylenediamine (en) by solvothermal conditions at high temperature (120-200°C) and long aging time (5-24 h) [15][16][17][18][19]. In addition, high activities of CdS in photocatalytic reduction reactions have been also reported [20,21].…”

“…It is also observed that the particle size of the nanostructured materials influences the SDTA results [25]. The exothermic peak area of the SDTA curve is large when the particle size is small.…”
