CdS quantum dots of face centered cubic (fcc) and hexagonal close packed (hcp) structures were synthesized from sulphur source of sodium sulphide and thioacetamide respectively via microwave-hydrothermal method. The synthesized quantum dots were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmiss...
