Abstract-In this section that we have stated that the solution of ethylene glycol has been employed as a solvent in the solvothermal approach to yield CdS: Eu nanocrystals with a bright white emission. It can be determined by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) examination that the CdS:Eu nanocrystals have an average diameter of 5.8 nm. The functional groups absorbed on CdS:Eu nanocrystals were confirmed via FT-IR spectra. From photoluminescence (PL) studies at λex = 398 nm, the PL emission intensity of CdS: Eu nanocrystals enhanced by doping Eu3+ ions. Furthermore, the optical characteristics of CdS:Eu nanocrystals are influenced by the chemical reaction parameters, such as the concentration of doped Eu3+ ions. The structural, morphological & optical properties of CdS:Eu nanocrystals were also investigated.
