Microbial synthesis of semiconductor CdS nanoparticles, their characterization, and their use in the fabrication of an ideal diode
Abstract
Cadmium sulfide nanoparticles were synthesized intracellularly by a Schizosaccharomyces pombe strain when challenged with 1 m M cadmium in solution. The nanoparticles, a known semiconducting material, exhibited an absorbance maximum at 305 nm. X‐ray scattering data showed that the nanoparticles had a Wurtzite (Cd 16 S 20)‐type hexagonal lattice structure and most of the nanoparicles were in the size range of 1–1.5 nm. The nanoparticles were used in the fabrication of a heterojunction with poly (p‐phenylenevinylene). The diode exhibited ∼75 mA/cm 2 current at 10 V when forward biased and the breakdown occurred at ∼15 V in the reverse biased mode. These characteristics are considered ideal for a diode. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Biotechnol Bioeng 78: 583–588, 2002.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
