“…Some of the relevant patents and publications highlight many such issues which can potentially be resolved using this technique. [35][36][37][38] Such materials as the α-NHNPs developed in the current work may play a very important role as active electrodes in energy storage devices as mentioned earlier. The technique of BGE is playing a gamechanging role in optical logic gates which form the core physical component for optical computing applications.…”

Nickel hydroxide nanoparticles (NHNPs) are extremely important semiconducting materials for applications in energy storage and energy harvesting devices. This study uses a novel variation in molarity of the sodium hydroxide (NaOH) precipitator solution to enhance the direct optical band gap in the NHNPs chemically synthesized by using nickel nitrate hexahydrate (Ni(NO 3 ) 2 Á6H 2 O) as the precursor. The simple, energy benign chemical precipitation route involved the usage of 1 M (Ni (NO 3 ) 2 Á6H 2 O) solutions as the precursor and 0.4 M, 0.6 M, and 0.8 M NaOH solutions as the precipitator solutions. The simple variation in precipitator molarity induces an increase in pH from about 6.9 to 7.5 of the reactant solution. As the molarity of the precursor solution does not change, the change in pH of the reactant solution is equivalent to the change in the pH of the precipitator solution. The NHNPs characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) and ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) techniques confirm a reduction of the nanocrystallite size from about 6.8 to 4.5 nm with a concomitant enhancement in the direct optical band gap energy from about 2.64 to 2.74 eV. The possible mechanisms that could be operative behind obtaining microstructurally tuned (MT)-NHNPs and band gap engineering (BGE) of the MT-NHNPs are discussed from both theoretical and physical process perspectives. Further, the implications of these novel results for possible future applications are briefly touched upon. The reported results might be useful to assess the material as an active electrode to improve the performance of batteries.
