Synthesis and Characterisation of Ternary Semiconductor Nanoparticles Blended with Medicinal Leaf Extract

Abstract

The characterizations of synthesized CdZnS nanoparticles with Lawsonia inermis leaf extract were done by the chemical precipitation method. The formation of CdZnS nanoparticles with the extract was confirmed using XRD, SEM analysis and EDAX. XRD revealed the structure and the particle size.  SEM analysis of CdZnS NPs confirmed shape and size. The optical studies were done for the prepared sample. From the obtained UV-visible absorption spectrum, band gap energy was calculated using the Tauc plot.
