Abstract

Here we present a novel study of Calcium hydroxide and iron-nickel co-doped Calcium hydroxide nanoparticles. Calcium hydroxide (CH) and iron-nickel doped Calcium hydroxide (INCH) nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized by a simple chemical precipitation method. XRD, FESEM-EDX, and FTIR were used to characterize the structural and morphological characteristics, while UV–Vis spectroscopy was used to study the optical alterations. The average crystallite size is estimated to be 63.75 nm and 66 nm for the CH and INCH nanoparticles, respectively. The FESEM analysis revealed that CHNPs form a hexagonal-like shape, whereas INCH NPs produce highly agglomerated dispersed particles. The UV–Vis spectroscopy revealed that the band gap changes with average crystallite size concurrently.
