Preparation of cds Nanoparticles Using Paraffin Oil

A method produced to preparate the CdS Cadmium sulfer using the paraffin oil instade the Olyelamine acid since it is toxic solution. The optical properties were measured by using the absorption and photoluminescence spectrum where the energy gap is about 2.8 eV. The structure properties of the prepared nanoparticles was carried out by measuring the X-ray diffraction which show the hexagonal structure, while the dimension of the prepared nanoparticles was 11 nm calculated from Scherer formula. The morphology of the CdS nanopartcles was studied from the Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM).
