Abstract: | In recent years, the research on semiconductor nanoparticles has stimulated much interest because of their unique optical and electrical properties. The nanosized semiconductor crystallites could produce optical properties which are different from bulk materials. Among the semiconductor nanoparticles, Zinc Sulphide is an important II–VI semiconductor material researched extensively because of its wide range of applications in electroluminescence devices, phosphors, light emitting displays and optical sensors. Semiconductor nanoparticles doped with transition metal ions have attracted much attention because of their luminescent properties. Hence an attempt is made to synthesize cupric chloride doped zinc sulphide nanoparticles. The synthesized nanoparticles are subjected to Xray diffraction to calculate the average nano-crystalline size using Debye – Scherrer formula and are found to be 2nm. The morphological analysis of the sample is studied using Scanning Electron Microscope. The UV-Visible spectrophotometer shows the absorption edge of the nanoparticles in range 292 to 261 nm. A FT-IR spectrum confirms the characteristic ZnS vibration peaks. |
