Synthesis and characterisation of CdS nanoparticles in mesoporous copolymer template
Micron-sized spheres of mesoporous styrene-divinylbenzene (Sty-DVB) copolymer were produced by suspension polymerisation in the presence of inert diluents. Using these mesoporous microspheres as a template, optically stable CdS nanoparticles have been synthesized. To characterize these CdS nanoparticles, Raman spectroscopy and micro-photoluminescence were used. We have observed enhanced emission and lasing action at certain wavelengths that correspond to the whispering gallery (WG) modes of the microspheres. High optical stability and low threshold value make this optical system promising in microlaser applications.
