Study and Antibacterial Activity of CdS Thin Films Prepared by Thermal Evaporation Technique (TET)

Abstract:

In this work, high crystalline CdS thin films were formed by using thermal evaporation technique (TET) under vacuum proses 10^-6 Torr using vacuum system (Edwards Co.) . The results were investigated the structure, morphology and crystal size of films using XRD and FESEM. The antibacterial activity of CdS thin films was performed by measuring the zone of inhibition using diffusion plate method against a test organism like E.coli and S.aureus and evaluated the activity of CdS thin films in removal bacteria. The preparation method of CdS using thermal evaporation technique (TET) expands the horizon to biological systems as an essential medicinal agent.
