Fabrication of hierarchical CdS microspheres assembled by nanowires: solid state electro-chemiluminescence in H2O2 solution: "

Abstract  

Hierarchical CdS microspheres self-assembled by nanowires were synthesized via an ethylenediamine tetraacetate assisted solvothermal
approach using cadmium chloride and l-cysteine as reaction agents. The phase structure, morphology, and optical properties of the products were investigated by
X-ray powder diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and electro-chemiluminescence, respectively.
Studies showed that the final morphology of the products was strongly influenced by the concentration of ethylenediamine tetraacetate
and reaction temperature. The as-prepared hierarchical CdS spheres could be a good candidate for a detective technology due
to its high electro-chemiluminescence intensity.
