Sr- and Ni-doping in ZnO nanorods synthesized by a simple wet chemical method as excellent materials for CO and CO2 gas sensing

Abstract: In this study, the effect of Sr-and Ni-doping on microstructural, morphological and sensing properties of ZnO nanorods has been investigated. Nanorods with different Sr and Ni loadings were prepared using a simple wet chemical method and characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and photoluminescence (PL) analysis. XRD data confirmed that Sr-and Ni-doped samples maintainsthe wurtzite hexagonal structure of pure ZnO. However, unlikes Sr, Ni doping modifies the nanorod… Show more

“…Although the change in the morphology of the nanostructured ZnO with increasing Mn 2+ concentration, observed by TEM and FTIR, is not a new phenomenon, a recently published review 38 regarding the inuence of ionic impurities on the phase and growth/morphology of semiconductor nanocrystals shows that, despite intensive research, there are fundamental issues still unsolved. Previous articles have reported morphological changes of the ZnO nanomaterials associated with the doping process, [39][40][41][42][43] which could be connected to specic structural and coordination properties, as further explained. The crystallographic plane with the minimum surface free energy determines the preferential growth direction.…”

“…This is due to the smaller cationic radius Li 1+ (0.167 nm) in comparison to V 5+ (0.171 nm). As a result of the substitution of the larger cationic radius of V by the smaller cationic radius of Li, the lattice compression (compressive strain) arises in the Li 0.04 V 2 O 5 crystalline phase 19 . Further comparing the peak intensities of the phases, it is observed that the intensity of the major phase Table 2.…”
