  • Abstract
    The kinetics of a first order solid–solid structural phase transformation in uncapped CdS nanocrystals has been investigated by powder x-ray diffraction. The x-ray diffraction measurements reveal that all uncapped CdS nanoparticles kept in different thermodynamic conditions like pressure and temperature undergo a structural phase transformation from wurtzite toward zinc-blende structure. The rate of transformation is higher when it is under influence of low/high pressure at room temperature as compared to other thermodynamic conditions. The total energy per atom calculated from ab-initio full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method also corroborates the validity of our experimental results.
