Its activity for oxidations (oxalic acid, propcne, I-propanol) and for oxygen isotope eschanfe is nil under visible illumination and is 25-1000 tirncs diminished under UV light. This is attributed to an increasc in electron-hole recombination at rhc <'r". Ion sites.

## Abstract A series of lightly Tlβdoped CdO thin films (1%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%, and 3%) have been prepared by a vacuum evaporation method on glass and Si wafer substrates. The prepared films were subjected to structural study by Xβray diffraction, optical characterisation by UVβVISβNIR absorption spec
