摘要: Abstract Cadmium sulfide thin films have been deposited on glass substrates by simple and cost effective chemical bath deposition technique. Triethanolamine was used as a complexing agent. The preparative parameters like ion concentration, temperature, pH, speed of substrate rotation time optimized for good quality films. ‘as-grown’ are characterized structural, electrical, optical photoelectrochemical (PEC) properties. X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies reveal that the polycrystalline in nature. Energy-dispersive analysis (EDAX) shows cadmium rich. Uniform CdS is observed from scanning electron microscopy (SEM) atomic force (AFM) micrographs. Optical high absorption coefficient (104 cm−1) with direct type transition. band gap estimated to be 2.47 eV. film n-type conduction mechanism. cell photoanode sulfide/polysulfide (1 M) solution an electrolyte constructed investigated various parameters. solar electrical conversion efficiency (η) fill factor (ff) found 0.049% 0.36, respectively.
