Cadmium oxide (CdO) is a yellowish to reddish-brown inorganic compound known for its semiconductor properties. With a density of 8.15 g/mL at 25 °C, CdO serves as a versatile reagent and catalyst in various chemical reactions. It is primarily used in the production of cadmium-based materials and as a catalyst in organic synthesis. Cadmium oxide is also utilized in the manufacturing of glass and ceramics, where it contributes to color and opacity. Our high-purity cadmium oxide powder, with a purity of 99.5% trace metals basis, is particularly valuable for applications that require minimal impurities.
We used low-temperature reactions to synthesize different-sized CdSe quantum dots (QDs) capped with fatty-acid and phosphine ligands. From the correlation of high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses of the synthesized QDs, we observed size-dependent shape anisotropy. In

CdO(2) nanocrystals with different sizes were synthesized via the hydrothermal reaction of 3CdSO(4).8H(2)O and H(2)O(2) in 1.25-6.25 vol.% ammonia solutions at 100-140 degrees C for 12h. The resultant products were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscope, thermal gravimetric

CdO in the rocksalt structure is an indirect band gap semiconductor. Thus, in order to determine its band gap one needs to calculate the complete band structure. However, in practice, the exact evaluation of the quasiparticle band structure for the
The CdS-sensitized solar cells (CdS-SSC) were fabricated by spray pyrolysis deposition (SPD) method. The performance of the cells was greatly improved through post-treatments that included thermal oxidation at 500 degrees C for 30 min in an air atmosphere and subsequent
