Abstract

The Fe2+-doped ZnSe nanorods are synthesized using simple potentiostatic mode of electrodeposition on the tin-doped indium oxide (ITO) substrate. To study the effect of electron irradiation, the 10-MeV energy has been applied on 1 % Fe2+-doped ZnSe nanorods with different doses such as 10, 20 and 30 kGy. After electron irradiation, structural, morphological, optical, electrochemical and photoelectrochemical properties have been investigated. Due to high energy electron irradiation dose, drastic changes have been observed in the morphological properties; hence, changes have been observed in photoelectrochemical properties also. Due to high-energy, nanorods are destroyed and the photoelectrochemical cell performance (PEC) has been decreased.
