Abstract
In this paper, we report the synthesis and optical properties of Fe(III) doped CdS nanobelts (NBs) via simple Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) technique to explore their potential in nano-optics. The energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis manifested the presence of Fe(III) ions in the NBs subsequently confirmed by the peak shifting to lower phonon energies as recorded by Raman spectra and shorter lifetime in ns. Photoluminescence (PL) spectrum investigations of the single Fe(III)-doped CdS NBs depicted an additional PL peak centered at 573 nm (orange emission) in addition to the bandedge(BE) emission. The redshift and decrease in the BE intensity of the PL peaks, as compared to the bulk CdS, confirmed the quenching of spectra upon Fe doping. The synthesis and orange emission for Fe-doped CdS NBs have been observed for the first time and point out their potential in nanoscale devices.
