The Effect of Sodiumcitrate as a Complexingagent on Optical and morphological Properties of Cdo films Prepared by Silar Technique

Abstract
In this work, CadmiumOxide (CdO) films deposited with and without sodium citrate are synthesized on the glass microscopeslide by relatively simple, cheap and quick successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) process at room temperature.The effect of the concentration of sodiumcitrate as thenon-toxiccomplexingagent in the growth solution on the morphologicaland optical properties of CdO films is examined.The optical and morphological features of the CdO films were designated from the metallurgical micro scope (MM) andUV–Vis Spectroscopy measurements.Accordingto MM images, the increase in sodium citrate concentration led to the change of the surface morphology.UV–vis. Spectroscopy analyses display that the optical characteristics such as transmittance and the band gap of CDO films could be altered via sodiumcitrate.Sodiumcitrateas a complexingagentplaysan important rolein the determination of the surface morphology and the control of the bandgap of theCdO films.
