Sonochemical synthesis, photocatalysis and photonic properties of 3% Ce-doped ZnO nanoneedles

ZnO nanostructured particles doped with 0-3% Ce were successfully synthesized by an ultrasonic solution method. Phase and morphology characterized by XRD, FTIR, SEM, TEM, HRTEM, SAED and EDX revealed the presence of hexagonal wurtzite ZnO nanoneedles with E 2H vibration at 426 cm -1 , composing of t...
