Description :
This paper presents the study of the structural and optical properties of copper doped cadmium sulphide nanoparticles by simple chemical route method. XRD pattern showed the hexagonal phase o\\\\f CdS nanoparticles. Morphological analysis confirmed that the grain size increases on copper doping. Compositional analysis confirmed that Cu ions replace Cd ions either interstitial or substituitional in Cu: CdS nanoparticles. Increase in doping agent concentration leads to an increase in the optical transmission and increases the size of the particles as the band gap decreases.
