CdTe@Cu(OH)(2) nanocomposite: Aqueous synthesis and characterization
CdTe@Cu(OH)(2) nanocomposites were synthesized in aqueous solution by a seed-mediated growth approach. The effect of refluxing time and the concentration of Cu2+ on the preparation of these samples were measured using UV-visible absorption and photoluminescence analysis. The emission peak of the synthesized nanocomposites (CdTe@Cu(OH)(2)) was shifted from 605 (CdTe seed) to 621 nm. The size of CdT
