Abstract

Zinc doped Cerium oxide nanoparticles are prepared by a facile single step co-precipitation method. The synthesis method involves co-precipitation of the precursor salts using a non-toxic, green reagent oxalic acid, followed by annealing process at reliable low temperature. The effect of Zn doping on cerium nanoparticles are clearly investigated by the different characterization techniques such as X-Ray Diffraction, Scanning electron microscopy for morphological study, Fourier Transform Infra-Red studies to study the functional groups present and UV–Vis spectroscopy for optical study. The micro-structural and optical studies exhibit remarkable variation in the structural, optical, and morphological properties.
