Abstract EN
The synthesis of silver-doped zinc oxide (Ag:ZnO) nanocomposite material was achieved using a simple chemical coprecipitation method, in which 0.2 M zinc chloride and 0.001 M silver nitrate coprecipitated with 25% ammonia solution by pulse mode dispersion using ultrasonicator.
The obtained silvery white precipitate was dried overnight at 110°C in hot air oven, and the powder was collected.
The resulted Ag:ZnO nanocomposite was structurally and optically characterized using various techniques.
The X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern clearly showed the presence of crystalline Ag:ZnO particles.
Further, UV-Vis spectrophotometer and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) results showed the presence of Ag:ZnO nanocomposite at specific wavelengths.
The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis confirm that the synthesized Ag:ZnO nanocomposite material was truncated nanorod in shape and has 48 to 226 nm size in diameter.
