Sustainable scientific advancements modified Ag2O-ZnO thin films characterization and application of photocatalytic purification of carcinogenic dye in deionizer water and contaminated sea water solutions and synthetic, natural based dye-sensitized solar cells

Abstract

The manuscript studied the preparation of ZnO as well as Ag2O-ZnO thin films deposited on glass substrates by spray pyrolysis approach at 500 °C. The photocatalytic activity of Ag2O-ZnO nanocomposite material was studied via the Photodegradation reaction of Rhodamine B (Rh B) dye under UV-light irradiation in Deionizer water which shows high activity as compared by Contamination of sea water. The Zinc was Zincacetylacetonate (ZnC10H14O5) at the atomic concentration and then dissolved in the ethanol and Ag NO3 (0.1 M) dissolved in ethanol. The effect of silver Oxide-Zinc Oxide Nanocomposite material on the structural, surface morphological, electrical and optical properties of Ag2O-ZnO thin films were studied. HR-SEM and HR-TEM image shows exposed that the surface morphology of the films nanoflower shaped structure. The presence of Silver, Zinc and Oxygen are confirmed the presence of peaks, using EDS analysis. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns accepted the successful growth of high quality thin films which is polycrystalline nature. The PL analysis shows in Ag2O-ZnO is certified to the low recombination of electron-hole pairs by transfer of electrons and holes between ZnO and UV–Vis DRS analysis. The photocatalytic activity of Ag2O-ZnO nanocomposite material was studied from Photodegradation study of Rhodamine B (Rh B) dye under UV-light irradiation of Deionizer water was high activity that Contamination of sea water. As a reaction of this the material was found to be stable and reusable, which extends to a high antibacterial activity and the electrochemical study from synthetic based and Natural based.DSSCS analysis showed increased current is short circuit by Ag2O-ZnO thin film nanocomposite material was industrial applications.
