Abstract :
In this analysis, ZnS nanoparticles have been synthesized employing an easy chemical co-precipitation route using metal precursors and DMF (CH3)2NC(O)H as a stabilizing agent. The obtained ZnS nanoparticles have been characterized through XRD, TEM, UV-Vis, FTIR and PL measurements. The foremost intense broad peaks in the diffraction outline reveal the crystalline character of the prepared material with the particle length is approximately 4.7 nm. The optical band gap has been evaluated from the UV-Vis. absorption spectrum which is found to be about 3.95 eV. The blue swing in absorption spectra validates the formation of nanoparticles. Further, the TEM micrograph revealing the ZnS particles are in nano dimension. FTIR study has been carried out for the bond evaluation. The PL measurement shows the emission of colour in the blue area.
