Abstract

Two different samples of cadmium sulfide (CdS) were prepared to study the sensitivity of the reverse micelles method. The spectrum for the first sample exhibited a well-defined band, with a maximum 345 nm and an absorption band gap onset at ∼385 nm. The spectrum was found broader and red-shifted by ∼75 nm for the second sample. A trivial change in experimental parameters in the preparation of CdS nanoparticles by reverse micelles solutions resulted in substantial changes in the crystal structure of the nanoparticles.
