In this work, CdTe nanoparticles has been prepared by Simple Chemical Co-Precipitation Method in which 0.8 mol of Cadmium acetate of AR grade was used as the cadmium source and 0.01 mol of tellurium dioxide of AR grade as the telluride source. Triethanoloamine (TEA) was used as a complexing agent and hydrazine hydrate was used as a reducing agent for tellurium. The synthesized nanoparticle samples was characterized by X- ray diffraction (XRD) and the average crystallite size was found to be 43.52 nm. The band gap energy was calculated from UV-visible absorption spectra and found to be 0.93 eV.
