Abstract
ZnSe which show a potential application in electronic devices such as photovoltaic devices, light emitting devices and photodetector have been synthesized through a hydrothermal method using ZnCl2 and Se powder as the source. In a typical synthesis, Zn2+ and Se2- ion have been prepared separately and charged into a Teflon-lined stainless steel autoclave. The hydrothermal reaction was conducted at 180 °C for 32 hours. Structural properties of ZnSe are studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD) while the optical properties of ZnSe compound are characterized through ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis). From the XRD result, pure ZnSe with main XRD peak at 2θ = 27.29°, 45.30°, 53.62°, 65.88°, 72.68° has been observed. The result have been supported by the optical results where absoprtion peak at 460 nm with optical band gap energy (Eg) at 2.5 eV.
