Abstract
In recent years intensive development of nanocrystalline materials in nanotechnology has occurred worldwide CdS has been an important semiconductor owing to its unique electronic and optical properties and its potential applications in solar energy conversion nonlinear optical photoelectrochemical cells and heterogeneous photocatalysis 1 2 To date synthesis of nanosized CdS has been a subject matter of immense interest and its synthesis has been tried by various methods 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 However either complex process control reagents or long synthesis time would be required for these routesRecently solidstate reaction has been developed in the synthesis of nanomaterials due to its many advantages no need for solvent no pollution simple process and so on 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 Though CdS nanoparticles have also been synthesized by room temperature solidstate reaction 22 further studies about the particles growth have
