    Abstract

    The present paper reports methods to prepare predominantly cubic but anisotropic CdS nanoparticles. Anisotropy is believed to be the result of small amounts of the hexagonal phase directing early stages of crystal growth. The effects of temperature and concentration on particle morphology have been studied. The morphologies observed include spherical, rod and prismatic structures. © The Royal Society of Chemistry 2008.
