Fabrication of the ZnS-ZnO Composite Film by Sulfurizing the as-Electrodeposited ZnO Film

Article Preview

Abstract:

The ZnS-ZnO composite film was successfully prepared by sulfidation of the as-electrodeposited ZnO film in the aqueous solution of zinc nitrate and hexamethylenetetramine. The ZnO film was electrodeposited on the substrate of indium-tin oxide (ITO) glass, and then the sodium sulfide solution was used to convert the ZnO film into the ZnS-ZnO composite film. The products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS) and UVvisible absorption. The experimental results show that the composite film on ITO glass still retained the morphology of as-electrodeposited ZnO coating, and is composed of ZnS with cubic structure and ZnO with hexagonal structure.
