Abstract
In this paper, cadmium sulfide (CdS) square thin Rakes were prepared from t he aqueous solution of Cd(NO3)(2) and thiocarbohydrate at 180 degreesC by u sing surfactants. The resulting samples were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron micrography (TEM). The particle prepared without surfactants has a spherical shape and the average size is about 16nm. The products fabricated in some surfactants have a square thin plate shape which may stack on each other to form a laminar structure. Ele ctron diffraction (ED) indicated the samples were well crystallized. (C) 20 01 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
