The structural, optical, and morphological properties were investigated by X-ray diffraction （XRD）, transmission electron microscope （TEM）, UV-Vis spectrophotometer, scanning electron microscope （SEM）, respectively. CdS nanocubes with size of less than 500 nm and nanocrystal-lites with diameter of less than 5 nm forming in reaction solution are observed. According to the TEM results and the SEM morphological evolution of CdS films, a crystal-lite-by-crystallite growth mechanism is proposed to eluci-date the growth process of chemical bath deposited CdS films based on the present growth mechanism.展开更多
