摘要：
Cu2Zn0.8Cd0.2SnS4 quinternary alloy nanostructures with different Cu concentration (0.3, 0.5, 0.7 and 0.9 mol/L) were grown on glass substrate, using the spin coating technique. The structural and morphological studies were carried out by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Field Emission-Scanning Electron Microscope (FE-SEM) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) techniques. Optical studies, carried out through UV-visible (UV-vis) spectrophotometer revealed that the direct band gap energy of Cu2Zn0.8Cd0.2SnS4 quinternary alloy nanostructures decreases as Cu concentration increases. The transmittance value in the range 63-49% was also dependent on Cu concentration. The refractive index and optical dielectric constant gave good agreement with experimental and theoretical results. Electrical properties studied by Hall Effect measurement, showed p-type conductivity, with a carrier concentration between 7.819 x 10(12)cm(-3) and 3.76 x 10(14) cm(-3).
