Introduction

Semiconducting optoelectronic materials play an important role in a
variety of application due to their unique optical, electrical, magnetic
and piezoelectric properties. Modification of these properties of
semiconductor materials depends upon the size, shape, morphology
and dimensions of material.[1]

The parameters of the synthesis, which can be fixed and optimized for
the synthesis are listed below. However, there are some additional
parameters in the synthesis of each size which have to be identified
and tuned in order to get a particular size of interest.
These are:
1. Volume of the reactants
2. Stirring speed
3. Rate of addition of CdCl2
4. Time of stirring after CdCl2 addition
5. Temperature
6. PH-value

Cadmium is one of the toxic heavy metal found in the effluents of
industries. Cadmium ions are not biodegradable and they accumulate
in living organisms at a higher concentration and cause various health
hazards. There are various techniques which are most commonly used
to remove the heavy metals like cadmium from water bodies are
ultrafiltration, lime precipitation, ion exchange and reverse osmosis,
electrochemical treatment, oxidation-reduction
But the use of these techniques have certain limitations like
incomplete precipitation, high operating cost and generation of a large
amount of metal bearing toxic sludge

Review of literature
1) UV-VIS absorption
2) X-Ray Diffraction (XRD)
3) Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM)
4) Scanning tunnelling Microscopy (STM)
5) Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM)
6) Small angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS)

X-ray powder diffraction was used for structure and size
determination by many groups. The particle size can be obtained
either by direct computer simulation of the X-ray diffraction pattern
or from the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the diffraction
peaks using the Debye-Scherrer formula.[6]
Furthermore, the validity of Scherrer’s equation, the effect
of defects, shapes and size distributions on the X-ray diffraction
patterns has to be examined. This is possible with a direct computer
simulation approach[6].

X-Ray Diffractometry(XRD):
XRD analysis of the CdS nanoparticles was carried out to study the
crystallinity and purity of the material. The XRD pattern of CdS (Fig.
2) exhibited six peaks corresponding to (002) for 2theta value 26.640,
(110) for 2theta value 44.020, (112) for 2theta value 52.020 and (114)
for 2theta value 72.880 faces in the crystal system. This confirmed the
hexagonal crystal structure of the material.
