A process for preparation of cadmium sulphide/glass nanocomposite containing CdS quantum dots comprising steps of:- a) heating in a furnace at 1100-1300°C mixture containing CdS to obtain molten glass, followed by soaking for 2-3 hrs; b) subjecting the molten glass to the step of quenching in a preheated mould of 550-580°C to obtain solid glass; c) annealing the solid glass in another furnace at 550-600°C for the growth of semi conductor nanocrystals into the matrix, a cooling at 2-5 c/minute. 2. A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the mixture comprising of quartz, Na2CO3, 0.5-1% of K2CO3, ZnO, H3BO3, BaCo3, TiO2 and CdS, uniform mixing of which is carried out such as for 12hrs. 3. A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the crystal growth takes place at 575-600°C. 4. A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein Cadmium sulphide glass nanocomposite containing CdS quantum dots comprising of 60% by wt. of SiO2, 6% by wt. of Na2O, 15.5% by wt. of K2O, 8% by wt. of ZnO, 3% by wt. of B2O3, 2% by wt. of TiO2, 5.5% by wt. of BaO and 0.5-1% by wt. of a dopant such as CdS. |
