AB  - The study presents nanocomposite materials based on Cd<sub>x</sub>Zn<sub>1-x</sub>S, synthesized as thin films 
and nanoparticles through two distinct techniques—sonochemical and SILAR synthesis 
techniques. The characteristics of these materials were investigated using X-ray diffraction 
(XRD), Ultraviolet spectroscopy (UV-Vis), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) 
spectroscopy, and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). In the sonochemical approach, 
samples were prepared with three different stabilizers for comparative analysis to determine 
influence of type of the stabilizers. Meanwhile, the SILAR approach created thin layers with 
different components (distinctive x value-Cd<sub>x</sub>Zn<sub>1-x</sub>S) at various grown temperatures 
utilizing polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as a substrate. At the same time, nanocomposite materials 
compared of same x value for Cd<sub>x</sub>Zn<sub>1-x</sub>S composite materials by sonochemical and SILAR 
synthesis technique depending on technological condition.
