Abstract
In this proposed research work, Zinc oxide is fabricated with carbon nanotubes, nitrogen, and silver. The conclusion of the distinctive hybrid of dopants on the ZnO/MWCNT nanocomposite was studied. Acidic and basic nature dyes are used to check the efficiency of the composite photocatalyst. The hydrothermal & microwave route was adapted for combining mesoporous nanocomposite samples. The XRD analysis confirmed the information to the nanoscale crystal with the hexagonal dimension of ZnO. The observation of UV-vis spectra validates its photocatalytic competency in the visible beam as an outcome of the reduction in the bandgap energy. The proficiency of the photocatalyst was additionally entrenched over the axing in electron-hole recombination activity referring to dwindling PL intensity. The BET inspection supports the mesoporous structures of the samples. The SEM micrograph revealed the existence of agglomeration in nanoparticles with MWCNT while the perusal of TEM images established the existence of a 16–24 nm diameter of the MWCNT. Furthermore, the EDX analysis confirmed the presence of the Zn, N, O, Ag, and C.
