Abstract:The present investigation focuses on the impact of Cd-doping concentration on the structural, optical and photocatalytic degradation properties of the CuO nanostructures. Cddoped (0, 1 and 3 mol %) CuO nanostructures were synthesized using ball milling cum solidstate reaction method. The physical properties of nanostructures were investigated using Raman, TEM, ultraviolet-visible, photoluminescence spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and dynamic light scattering techniques. X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscop… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
