In this paper, we present a comparative study of photoelectrochemical cells based on the films nanoparticles (NPs) and nanowires (NWs) of cadmium sulphide (CdS) thin films grown by chemical bath deposition (CBD) and wet chemical etching. The CdS samples are characterized by XRD, SEM and UV-vis absorption spectroscopy. The cell configuration n-CdS/1M (NaOH-Na2S-S)/C(graphite) is used for studying the I-V characteristics under illumination, photovoltaic output characteristics and transient photoresponse. Performance of the PEC cell is found to be improved by converting NPs of CdS into NWs.

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
