Özet
In this study, unary ZnO, CuO, CdO, and ternary ZnO–CuO–CdO metal oxide thin film materials were fabricated using the SILAR procedure. The XRD spectra of the synthesized films show sharp and dominant diffraction lines, indicating the high crystallinity of both the unary and ternary composite films. The crystallite size values of unary ZnO, CuO, CdO, and ZnO–CuO–CdO ternary films were found to be 18.71 nm, 12.86 nm, 15.88 nm, and 21.96 nm, respectively. FESEM pictures exhibited that nanocomposites have spherical and nanorod-like hybrid morphology, and EDX showed that Cd has a higher content than Zn and Cu. The prepared samples’ FT-IR spectra in the wavenumber range of 500–4000 cm−1 revealed the existence of numerous vibrational modes. The optical bandgap values were found to be 1.47, 3.20, 2.21, and 2.51 eV for the CuO, ZnO, CdO, and ternary ZnO-CuO-CdO films, respectively …
