Hydrothermal-Based Synthesis of CdS/ZnO Quantum Dots

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this article, the CdS and CdS/ZnO quantum dots (QDs) were prepared by hydrothermal synthesis method. The optimal reaction conditions of CdS/ZnO QDs were obtained through experiment as follows: the pH value of solution is 10.0, the reaction temperature is 140 °C and reaction time is 24 h. While the pH value is up to10.0, Zinc ion exist in solution with Zn (OH)2 and Zn (OH)42-, which is apt to adsorb on the surface of CdS, and form to ZnO shell under the hydrothermal condition, so CdS/ZnO QDs are synthesized successfully. The photographic images and fluorescence emission spectra results showed that the colour and the peak position of fluorescence spectra of CdS/ZnO QDs is consistent with literatures, which confirming the feasibility of this method.
