Zn1-XNiXO (x = 0.00, 0.02, 0.04 & 0.06 mol %) nanoparticles were prepared by simple co-precipitation method. The influences of Ni doping on structure, morphology, optical and photocatalytic properties were investigated by means of Xray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, UV–Vis spectrophotometer and photochemical reaction method. The obtained result shows that the prepared ZnO nanocrystals were hexagonal wurtzite structure and the average crystallite size decreases with increase of Ni doping. The increase of visible light absorption and increase of band gap were found with the increase of Ni doping concentration, which enable the sample harvest more photons to excite the electron from valence band. The photocatalytic properties of Ni doped ZnO nanocrystals shows enhanced activity that the pure ZnO nanocrystals. The photocatalytic activities were not significantly affected by the particle size and 0.04% Ni doped ZnO nanocrystals shows best catalytic activity than the other catalysts.

Abstract Yttrium-doped ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized by co-precipitation method to investigate structural, optical and antibacterial properties. X-ray diffraction analysis confirms hexagonal (wurtzite) structure with average crystallite size between 16 and 30 nm. Optical energy band gap decreaseswith increasing Y-doping concentration. ZnO nanoparticles were found to be highly effective against S. aureus and Y-doped ZnO nanoparticles against E. coli, B. subtilis and S. typhi. Undoped and Y-doped ZnO nanoparticles are good inorganic antimicrobial agents and can be synthesized by cost effective co-precipitation method.

Nanosized Mn doped ZnO samples were synthesized by co-precipitation method using Polyethylene glycol (PEG) as a capping agent. X- ray diffraction patterns confirm that the pure and Mn doped ZnO nanocrystals have wurtzite structure without any seconadary phases. Lattice parameters of pure and Mn doped ZnO nanocrystals increase slightly with increasing Mn concentration. The average crystalline size of pure and Mn doped ZnO nanocrystals are in the range of 14-18 nm. The X-ray density for pure and Mn doped ZnO sample is calculated using lattice parameters. It is found that almost static for Mn doped ZnO samples. In the Zn1-xMnx samples, room temperature magnetic hysteresis is observed and the saturation magnetization increases with increasing Mn content. However, these samples show room temperature ferromagnetic in nature. Result of the present investigation compared without PEG.

Undoped and Mg-doped ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized by co-precipitation method. The synthesized nanoparticles are successfully characterized by XRD, SEM, and UV-visible analysis. The Structure, Morphology, and Optical activity of the synthesized nanoparticle were studied with respect to ZnxMg1-xO (where x= 0, 2.5%M and 7.5%M). The XRD patterns revealed the wurtzite structure for all the nano samples. XRD studies confirmed that the crystalline size increased with increase in Mg content. The surface morphology of the prepared pure and Mg doped ZnO nanoparticles are investigated by SEM analysis. Optical characterization reveals that band gap energy decreases from 3.24 to 3.13 eV with Mg doping. UV-Visible results revealed that absorption underwent a red shift with Mg into ZnO as compared to pure ZnO.

In this study, the photocatalytic activity of pure Fe- doped ZnO and Fe- doped ZnO/Montmorillonite nanocomposite has been investigated for the degradation of malachite green under UV light irradiation. Both photocatalysts were synthesized using co-precipitation method and characterized by X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared absorption, and electron spin resonance. The results showed that the photocatalytic efficiency is better in the presence of montmorillonite compared to pure Fe- doped ZnO. To detect the possible reactive species involved in degradation of organic dyes control experiments with introducing scavengers into the solution of organic dyes were carried out. It is found that electron plays an important role in the degradation of malachite green.

In this work, we reported the preparation of F-doped ZnO nanoparticles by facile precipitation process using zinc nitrate and ammonium fluoride as starting precursors for Zn and F, respectively dissolved in deionized water. The precursor solution was prepared at various fluoride composition ranging from 1-5 wt%. The as-precipitated powders were calcined at different temperature from 500 °C to 700 °C for 2 h. Effect of calcination temperature and fluoride concentration on structural, morphologies, optical and electrical properties were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), UV-Vis spectroscopy, respectively. XRD results indicated the complete formation of hexagonal wurtzite structure of ZnO. SEM micrographs showed the agglomeration for each sample that noticeably influenced by fluoride content.
