SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF ZNO NANOPARTICLES WITH ZINC CHLORIDE AS ZINC SOURCE
Journal Title: ASIAN JOURNAL OF NATURAL & APPLIED SCIENCES - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
ZnO nanoparticles Synthesized by precipitating Zinc Chloride have been characterized Optically and Structurally. XRD is used for the structural characterization where the lattice constant was determined as a=b=3.2492Å, c=5.20661 Å with hexagonal structure and crystallite size as~5.3689 . UV-vis spectrometer was used to obtain UV-vis absorption spectrum where excitonic peaks were obtained at wavelength of 277 nm and 235 nm.
