Optical Examination on Zinc Sulphide Nanoparticles for Photovoltaic Applications

Abstract

In this research work Zinc Sulphide nanoparticles are synthesized by co–precipitation method with zinc nitrate and sodium sulfide sources. The obtained particles are characterized to know its structure, crystalline pattern, crystalline size and other morphologies. The crystalline size of the material is calculated by Debye–Scherrer Formula. X–Ray Diffraction analysis, Scanning Electron Microscopy, Fourier Transform Analysis and UV–Visible spectrum analysis is performed to study the mentioned morphology and properties of the material synthesized. The central point of this research work is to study the behavior of Zinc sulfide nanoparticles for solar cell applications. Hence, luminescence property of the material is finally analyzed
