Abstract
Chemical bath deposition of CdS (CBD-CdS) thin films with the assistance of a cationic surfactant, ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA), is reported in this work. Also the EDTA treated CdS thin films are compared with that of conventional CBD-CdS. Fabricated thin, compact, uniform and adherent EDTA-treated CdS films show enhanced effective surface area and roughness compared to conventional CBD-CdS. The grazing incidence x-ray diffraction analysis shows all the fabricated CdS films are hexagonally crystallized. EDTA-treated CdS films show excellent photo activity compared to conventional CBD-CdS. The flat band potential (Vfb) value was found to be tunable with EDTA concentration.
