Quenching of photocurrent in Cu doped CdS prepared by Spray pyrolysis technique is reported. Anomalous changes in surface morphology are seen at 2% of Cu in CdS. Surface morphology of pure CdS film shows rod like structure. Aspect ratio of such rods has a maximum around 2% Cu substitution. This in turn produces anomalous changes in photoconductivity, which is further supported by marked changes seen in mean crystallite size, strain and grain size, roughness, transmittance, optical band gap, activation energy and finally in the photocurrent. Pronounced effects are seen in transmittance as a broad profile centered on 590Â nm. The observed effects are explained in terms of carrier recombination mechanisms.
⺠Photoconductivity in Cu doped CdS films is reported. ⺠2% Cu enhances the aspect ratio of nanorods and photosensitivity. ⺠Anomalous changes are also seen in structural, transport and optical properties. ⺠Quenching of photocurrent is described by carrier recombination. ⺠Quick photo response upon illumination can be tuned for applications.
