Preparation of CdIn2S4-CdS nanocomposite via a green route and using them in dot-sensitized solar cells for boosting efficiency

In this work In2S3 and CdS nanoparticles were prepared by a simple hydrothermal method and then annealed at 500 °C for 2 h in an Ar gas until CdIn2S4(CdIS)-CdS nanocomposites were formed. Afterwards, efficiency of the as-synthesized CdIS-CdS nanocomposite in quantum dot-sensitized solar cells (QDSSCs) was evaluated. For this purpose, the as-prepared CdIS-CdS nanocomposites were deposited on TiO...

The rapid size- and shape-controlled continuous hydrothermal synthesis of metal sulphide nanomaterials.

Continuous flow hydrothermal synthesis offers a cheap, green and highly scalable route for the preparation of inorganic nanomaterials which has predominantly been applied to metal oxide based materials. In this work we report the first continuous flow hydrothermal synthesis of metal sulphide nanomaterials. A wide range of binary metal sulphides, ZnS, CdS, PbS, CuS, Fe(1-x)S and Bi2S3, have been...

Optical, Thermal and Structural Properties of CdS Quantum Dots Synthesized by A Simple Chemical Route

The present work deals with the synthesis and characterization of CdS nanoparticles with good thermal stability and optical properties by a novel and simple synthetic route. The nanoparticles were synthesized via chemical precipitation method in a single reaction vessel under ambient conditions. The prepared CdS nanoparticles were compared with the bulk CdS. The Optical properties were determin...

Controlling the morphology of ZnO nanostructures in a low-temperature hydrothermal process.

ZnO nanostructures of different morphologies were grown in a controlled manner using a simple low-temperature hydrothermal technique. Controlling the content of ethylenediamine (soft surfactant) and the pH of the reaction mixture, nanoparticles, nanorods, and flowerlike ZnO structures could be synthesized at temperatures 80-100 degrees C with excellent reproducibility. High-resolution electron ...

Influence of reaction parameters on crystal phase growth and optical properties of ultrasonic assisted hydro- and solvothermal synthesized sub-micrometer-sized CdS spheres

Sub-micrometer-sized CdS spheres were synthesized by hydrothermal and solvothermal reactions using Cd(NO3)2.4H2O and CH4N2S raw materials at a constant stoichiometric 1 : 2, Cd : S molar ratio. Various conditions such as solvent type (water and/or ethanol), reaction time and temperature were examined for the synthesis of the targets. The sy...
