Abstract

Ionic equilibriums in the Cd2+–L–N2H4CS (L = NH3, H2NCH2CH2NH2, C6H5O 3–7 , NH3 + C6H5O 3–7 ) systems have been analyzed. The ranges and boundary conditions of the formation of cadmium sulfide CdS and the accompanying Сd(OH)2 and СdCN2 impurity phases have been determined. 100–200 nm thick nanocrystalline cadmium sulfide films constituted by 10–30-nm particles arranged into globules with diameter of 400–700 nm have been synthesized. The effects of the nature and strength of the complexing agent on the microstructure and morphology of the resultant CdS layers have been demonstrated using scanning electron microscopy.
