Abstract

The growth of nanomaterials can be carried out by either bottom-up or top-down methods and the growth strategy should be selected by considering the requisite properties of the product NPs. The NPs of cadmium-based II–VI semiconducting materials can be prepared by a variety of ways out of which vapor–liquid–solid (VLS) has been found popular approach which can be implemented in a number of experimental routs. A comprehensive description of VLS mechanism and reported efforts for preparation of the nanomaterials through different routes is given in the following sections. This chapter covers the chemical synthesis techniques including co-Precipitation method, Chemical bath deposition, Successive ion layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) deposition, electroplating and electrophoretic deposition, hydrothermal method, solvothermal synthesis, microemulsion synthesis, polyol method, and sol-gel synthesis methods for the growth of the nanomaterials.
