Photoconductive Cadmium Sulfide Hemicylindrical Shell Nanowire Ensembles

Li, Qiguang, Penner, Reginald M.·2005·Nano Letters

Abstract

We report the synthesis and characterization of hemicylindrical shell nanowires (HSNWs) composed of nanocrystalline cadmium sulfide (CdS). CdS HSNWs were synthesized by first electrodepositing microcrystalline cadmium (Cd) nanowires by electrochemical step-edge decoration on graphite electrode surfaces and then converting these Cd nanowires into CdS by exposure to H2S at elevated temperature. These nanowires had a hemicylindrical shell morphology that was produced by the Kirkendall effect, involving disparate rates for diffusion of Cd and S atoms within the nascent CdS layer during the conversion from Cd to CdS. The outer diameter of the CdS HSNWs was 1.6-2.4 times that of Cd precursor nanowires and was adjustable over the range from 116 to 550 nm. CdS HSNWs showed strong, band-edge photoluminescence at 2.45 eV and a fast, reversible, and stable photoconductivity response in air characterized by "on" and "off" times of less than 15 ms.

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.
