Zno-Tio2 Nanocomposites Synthesized By Sol-Gel Route: Study Of Their Structural And Optical Properties

Abstract

The ZnO-TiO₂ nanocomposites were prepared by means of sol-gel method  XRD patterns reveal the formation of well-crystalline single phase materials. It is found that the crystallite size has been reduced due to addition of TiO₂ in ZnO matrix as compared with ZnO nanoparticles. The synthesized ZnO-TiO₂ nanoparticles have been characterized by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-Visible spectroscopy, Photoluminescence, Vibrating sample magnetometer instruments and the morphologies were observed with FESEM and TEM.
