Abstract:In this work, Y-doped ZnO nanoparticles were precipitately synthesized for various yttrium molar percentage values ranging from 0 to 5%, and then utilized as photocatalysts to demonstrate methylene blue degradation. Morphology shows that the particle size of pure ZnO is 113.7733.26 nm, which is reduced to the minimum value less than one-third for the Y-doped ZnO samples. As a result, surface-to-volume ratios of Y-doped ZnO samples have successfully increased due to their decreased size. This decrease in parti… Show more
