Synthesis and characterization of Indium Oxide nanoparticles using indium nitrate and polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) as precursors

This paper reports the synthesis and characterization of In2O3 nanoparticles by a simple polymer complex method using indium (III) nitrate and polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) as the starting chemicals. The precursors were calcined at different temperatures to obtain In2O3 nanoparticles. The XRD and elec...
