Synthesis and characterization studies of pure and Ni doped CuO nanoparticles by hydrothermal method

Abstract

An efficient synthesis of Ni doped CuO nanoparticles were carried out by hydrothermal method. The prepared material was subjected to X-ray diffraction (XRD), the morphological characteristics of the prepared material system were studied by scanning electron microscope (SEM) technique. FTIR spectra have confirmed the establishment of CuO nanoparticles. Optical absorption spectra of prepared nanoparticles were measured using UV–vis spectroscopy and photoluminescence (PL) studies. A thorough examination of the frequency dependent dielectric constant reveals the unique impact of various polarizations. According to the magnetic experiments, the produced nanoparticles had a maximal magnetic moment value of 5.0 wt% for Ni doped CuO Nps. All the above analysis were studied the grain size were found and calculated for pure CuO, Ni incorporated CuO respectively.
