Abstract
Mesoporous metal oxides ZnO are prepared by wet impregnation via hard templating synthesis method using KIT-6 mesoporous silica. The pore size of mesoporous silica with the symmetry of bicontinuous cubic Ia3d have been controlled in the range of 3.4–4.9 nm, indicating the existence of ordered within the silica walls respectively, by choosing surfactants and adjusting the temperature. The pore size of the silica template has been considered to be an important factor that determines the mesostructure of the resulting metal oxides. The prepared ZnO/KIT-6 samples have been studied by XRD, transmission electron microscope (TEM), BET surface area, and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. The ZnO/KIT-6 nanocomposite has the ordered mesostructure of KIT-6 can be used as a white light emitting diode (w-LED) and ultraviolet nanolasers.
