Solvothermal synthesis of CdIn2S4 photocatalyst for selective photosynthesis of organic aromatic compounds under visible light
Abstract Ternary chalcogenide semiconductor, cadmium indium sulfide (CdIn2S4), was prepared by a simple solvothermal method using ethylene glycol as a solvent, as well as indium chloride tetrahydrate (InCl3.4H2O), cadmium nitrate tetrahydrate [Cd(NO3)2.4H2O], and thiacetamide (TAA) as precursors.The resulted sample was subject to a series of charac
