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 E2H vibration at 426 cm-1, composing of the...
