In this work, we have been reported the transition metal (Ni) doped SnO2 nanoparticles were successfully prepared by chemical co-precipitation method with various Ni doping concentrations such as 0%, 2% and 4%. The prepared Ni doped SnO2 nanoparticles characterized by X-ray diffraction pattern (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), UV-Vis Spectroscopy and Photoluminescence Spectroscopy (PL). The XRD Pattern confirms the presence of polycrystalline nature with the tetragonal structure of SnO2 and the peaks are identified with the JCPDS card No. 88-0287. The SEM image indicates that the particles were irregular shape for all prepared samples. The SEM image showed that the agglomeration process is occurring slowly down with the inclusion of Ni doping content. An EDX study confirms the presence of Sn, O and Ni elements. In FTIR studies the functional groups were identified based on host and doping materials. The minimum band gap value obtained for 0% Ni concentration. When the doping concentration increases, band gap also increases. From PL studies strong band orientation was observed.

Transition metal ions (Co and Cr) doped ZnO nanoparticles supported on natural zeolite were synthesized using co-precipitation method. The synthesized samples were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray, Fourier-transform infrared absorption, and UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. The samples were further used as photocatalyst for degradation of methyl orange and methylene blue in aqueous solutions under UV light irradiation. The results showed that zeolite supported Cr-doped ZnO nanoparticles is more efficient compared with zeolite supported Co-doped ZnO nanoparticles. It is also revealed that zeolite supported samples possessed higher photocatalytic efficiency compared to bare samples.

Nanoparticles of Zn1-xFexS ( x=0.0,0.1,0.2 and 0.3) were prepared by chemical co-precipitation method from homogenous solution of zinc and ferum salt at room temperature with controlled parameter. These nanoparticles were sterically stabilized using Sodium Hexamethaphospate (SHMP). Here, a study of the effect of Fe doping on structure, morphological and optical properties of nanoparticles was undertaken. Elemental analysis, morphological and optical properties have been investigated by Fourier-Transform-Infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF), Field Emmision Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and UV-Visible Spectroscopy. FTIR measurement confirmed the presence of SHMP in the nanoparticles structure with the FESEM images depicting considerable less agglomeration of particles with the presence of SHMP. While XRF results confirm the presence of Fe2+ ion as prepared in the experiment. The particles sizes of the nanoparticles lay in the range of 2-10 nm obtained from the TEM image were in agreement with the XRD results. The absorption edge shifted to lower wavelengths with an increase in Fe concentration shown in the UV-Vis spectroscopy. The band gap energy value was in the range of 4.95 5.15 eV. The blueshift is attributed to the quantum confinement effect.

In the present work, conventional chemical co-precipitation method was employed for the preparation of Nickel (2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 at.% of Ni ) doped CdS nanoparticles. The crystallite size and lattice parameters for each sample are determined from X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. From XRD patterns the broadening of the diffraction peaks indicates the nanostructure nature of the samples. Surface morphology of the samples was studied by scanning electron microscope (SEM). UV-Visible absorption spectra for prepared samples are monitored for the optical properties of quantum sized particles. All nanoparticles formed lie in the size quantization regime and exhibit good crystallinity. Optical properties have been observed via UV-Vis spectroscopy and Photoluminescence spectra (PL) spectra. Ni doping in CdS is found to modify the luminescence properties by creating shallow acceptor states.

Present work illustrates synthesis of Cr doped WO3 nanostructures (NS) (2 wt. %, 4 wt. % and 6 wt. %) by co precipitation method using surfactants and reported enhanced impedance, capacitance-voltage and current-voltage (I-V) characteristics. NS were characterized by cyclic voltammetry (CV), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-Visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy, pelletized samples performed I-V, C-V and impedance measurements. Impedance results reveal that the pelletized samples of highest doped Cr showed remarkable increase in admittance with respect to the biased voltage. I-V characteristics of highest doped Cr exhibited enhanced surface conductivity as compared with applied current. The output power considerably increases for the 6 wt. % of Cr doped WO3 and doping percentage of Cr increases surface conductivity, power output, admittance considerably enhances in the material matrix. This work demonstrated that Cr doped WO3 has more sensitivity towards I-V, C-V and impedance value considerably varies with the applied bias voltage. The limitation is not certain in case of doped nanomaterials of Cr-WO3, since these materials possesses nonlinear properties and can find applications in the diversified filed of nano electronics. The authors reported work can be a key guide for the upcoming researchers in the area of biomedical devices, nanoelectronics, sensors, wherein Cr-WO3 NS finds applications because of its enhanced I-V, C-V, Impedance characteristics. The work has been carried out to understand the electrical and electronic properties of doped nanomaterials in the original work place and analysis has been carried out at various institutions where the provisions for the experimentation is being made.

High efficient and large surface area of titanium doped tin dioxide (SnO2) based photocatalysts with various titanium doping contents varying from 0 to 4 mol% have been successfully prepared via a facile, low cost and eco-friendly co-precipitation method. Structural, morphological, textural, microstructural and optical properties of the prepared Ti-SnO2 nanoparticles (NPs) have been investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), the Brunauer–Emmett-Teller (BET) method, Raman spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), UV-Vis spectroscopy and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. It was found that both undoped and Ti doped SnO2 NPs were crystallized in tetragonal structure and the crystallite sizes have been reduced from 19.9 nm for undoped SnO2 NPs to 13.1 nm for SnO2: Ti 4%. As compared to pure SnO2, a decrease in size and a uniform distribution of spherical aggregates for 4% Ti doped SnO2 sample have been noticed. Nitrogen (N2) adsorption-desorption isotherms of all synthesized NPs indicate that each nanopowder showed a IV type- isotherm with a hysteresis loop resulted in a typical porous materials containing macropores and mesopores. The raman spectra was marked with the appearance of three well resolved peaks including one intense peak centered at 633 cm−1 and two other peaks at about 475 cm−1 and 772 cm−1 which might be ascribed to the characteristic modes of of the SnO2 rutile-type. FTIR spectra of Ti doped SnO2 NPs show a broad band situated in the region from 630 cm−1 to 625 cm−1 for all Ti–SnO2 samples which could be assigned to the stretching vibrations of Sn–O–Sn. Optical studies revealed that the absorption edge of SnO2: Ti NPs showed a redshift with rising titanium concentration. This redshift resulted in a decrease in the optical band gap from 3.31 eV for pure SnO2 to 2.87 eV for 4% Ti doped SnO2 nanoparticles respectively. Rhodamine B dye (RhB) has been adopted to study the photocatalytic degradation of all synthesized Ti–SnO2 NPs. Pure SnO2 NPs has an intrinsic large band gap and it was sensitive to UV light. Thus, pure SnO2 NPs display higher UV photocatalytic performance for decomposing the RhB. Titanium incorporation into SnO2 has widely improved its photocatalytic performance towards RhB photodegradation under UV and Visible light irradiations. Precisely, the 4% Ti–SnO2 based photocatalyst display the highest photacatalytic activity and can degrade both of 95% and 52% of RhB dye within 120 min respectively under UV and visible light irradiations. The enhanced photocatalytic activity of the 4% doped SnO2 photocatalyst was further proved with the minimum PL intensity. The homogeneous incorporation of low Ti contents into the SnO2 matrix allow to a significant reduce in the band gap leading to an efficient separation of photogenerated electron-hole pairs and consequently improves the absorption capability in the visible light.

Because of the importance of inorganic phosphates in the solid-state lighting industry, KZnPO4 doped with some transition metal dopant ions like Cu+ and Ag+ ions were prepared by low-cost co-precipitation method at room temperature followed by annealing at a high temperature around 6500C. The prepared phosphors were characterized by X-ray diffraction. In the case of a Photoluminescence study for KZnPO4 doped with Cu+, the emission was observed at 425 nm, which corresponds to the emission of Cu+ ion. In the case of Ag+ doped KZnPO4, weak emission was observed at 420 nm, which is assigned to the emission of Ag+ ions. CIE chromaticity coordinate of KZnPO4 doped with Cu+ and Ag+ ions phosphor was also evaluated via using OSRAM SYLVANIA color calculator and colour purity of concentration was nearly 95% of Cu+ and Ag+ ions. The obtained outcomes revealed that the prepared phosphor shows potential application in the field of solid-state lighting.

Single crystalline nano-sized multiferroic BiFeO3 (BFO) powders were synthesized through simple chemical co-precipitation method using polyethylene glycol (PEG) as capping agent. We obtained pure phase BiFeO3 powder by controlling pHand calcination temperature. From X-ray diffraction studies the nanoparticles were unambiguously identified to have a rhombohedrally distorted perovskite structure belonging to the space group of R3c. No secondary phases were detected. It indicates single phase structure. EDX spectra indicated the appearance of three elements Bi, Fe, O in 1:1:3. From the UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectrum, the absorption cut-off wavelength of the BFO sample is around 558nm corresponding to the energy band gap of 2.2 eV. The size (60-70 nm) and morphology of the nanoparticles have been analyzed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM).   Linear M−H behaviour and slight hysteresis at lower magnetic field is observed for BiFeO3 nanoparticles from Vibrating sample magnetometer studies. It indicates weak ferromagnetic behaviour at room temperature. From dielectric studies, the conductivity value is calculated from the relation s = L/RbA Sm-1 and it is around 7.2 x 10-9 S/m.

Hydroxyapatite (HAp) and hydroxyapatite/multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) composites were obtained by the co-precipitation method, followed by ultrasound-assisted and microwave radiation and thermal treatment at 250 °C. X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed the presence of a hexagonal phase in all the samples, while Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy elucidated the interaction between HAp and MWCNTs. The photoluminescent technique revealed that HAp and the composite with non-functionalized MWCNTs present a blue luminescence, while the composite with functionalized MWCNTs, under UV-vis radiation shows an intense white emission. These findings allowed presentation of a proposal for the use of HAp and HAp with functionalized MWCNTs as potential materials for optoelectronic and medical applications.
