CdS-Decorated Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes as a Material for New Devices

Cadmium Sulfide (CdS) nanoparticles were successfully grown on Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWNTs) via a simple chemical reaction. The CdS-MWNTs sample was afterwards characterized with Scanning and Transmission Electron Microscopies (SEM/TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The obtained images show...

Description
Summary:Cadmium Sulfide (CdS) nanoparticles were successfully grown on Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWNTs) via a simple chemical reaction. The CdS-MWNTs sample was afterwards characterized with Scanning and Transmission Electron Microscopies (SEM/TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The obtained images show clearly the decoration of the MWNTs by the CdS nanoparticles, and the XRD measurements indicate the CdS structure as Zinc Blend type.
