Popis: | Cadmium sulfide (CdS) micro/nanocrystalline structures were fabricated by thermal evaporation in the absence of a catalyst on ITO-coated glass and Si(100) substrates. The samples prepared at 520 °C showed two structures of CdS: nanowires (NWs) and necklace-like microstructures grown on Si(111) and ITO substrates, respectively. The crystalline structures of the grown CdS necklace-like microstructures and NWs were studied using XRD analysis. The CdS necklaces and NWs structures were formed with hexagonal (wurtzite) structure. Two emission bands (green and red) were observed in the photoluminescence spectra of the prepared samples. The green PL emission in both structures showed a strong blue-shift compared with the optical band gap of CdS. Raman spectra of the grown CdS micro/nanocrystalline structures show redshift in the fundamental (1LO) and overtone (2LO) peaks location compared with Raman bands of bulk CdS. |
