Synthesis of PbCrO4 and Pb2CrO5 Rods via a Microwave-Assisted Ionic Liquid Method

“…Lead chromate (PbCrO 4 ) is an important solid material that is widely used as a photosensitizer and yellow pigment. Dilead pentaoxochromate (Pb 2 CrO 5 ) with a monoclinic c 2/ m structure has a large absorption coefficient and a high-speed photoresponse in the visible region of the spectrum and therefore can be used as a potential candidate for applications in photoconductors, optoelectronic devices, and reversible thermochromism materials . Due to their potential applications, the synthesis of PbCrO 4 and Pb 2 CrO 5 crystals with well-controlled size and shape is of great significance.…”
