Synthesis and Characterization of Fe-doped Manganese Oxide Nanoparticle by using Chemical Precipitation Method
J. Environ. Nanotechnol., Volume 9, No 4 (2020) pp. 08-11
Abstract
Nanoparticles research is an area of intense scientific research due to a wide variety of potential applications in biomedical, optical and electronic fields. Manganese oxide nanoparticles can be utilized for advanced materials in batteries, water treatment, and imaging contrast agents. In this present study, Fe doped Manganese Oxide nanoparticles were successfully synthesized by using the chemical precipitation method. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by using XRD, SEM, EDAX, FTIR, UV and PL. The average crystallite size of the sample had been investigated by the XRD technique. The morphology and grain size were obtained from SEM images. The elemental composition was confirmed by EDAX. The FTIR studies confirm the various functional groups present in the prepared sample. From the UV spectrum, the optical band gap was calculated. The intensity of emission radiation was absorbed by photoluminescence spectroscopy. This analysis confirmed that the Fe doped MnO has a slightly greater emission band than the pure MnO
