Synthesis and Electrical Characterization of Cu2+ doped (SnO2)1- x(ZnO)x nanocomposites.

Abstract

(SnO2)1-x(ZnO)x (with x values 0.0,0.2,0.4,0.5,0.6,0.8,1.0) nanocomposites doped with 1 mole percent Cu2+ was synthesized using simple microwave assisted solvothermal method with ethylene glycol as solvent. The asprepared samples were calcinated for about 500 0C and the calcinated samples were characterized using powder X-ray diffraction analysis (PXRD) and the electrical measurements were carried out within the temperature range of 40-150 0C. The electrical parameters such as dielectric constant and dielectric loss factor were found to increase with increase in temperature and decreases with increase in frequency. The occurrence of space charge polarization was responsible for the changes. It was observed that the AC electrical conductivity increases with increase in frequency and temperature and it was mainly due to hopping of electrons. The results obtained were reported and discussed.
