Synthesis and Characterization of Pure and Copper Doped ZnO Nanoparticles

The evolving concept in the field of science and technology is nanotechnology. In this present work the zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO) were successfully synthesized using both biological and chemical techniques. Pure and Cu doped Zinc oxide particles were prepared by co-precipitation method associated with microwave irradiation method. The prepared Cu doped ZnO were characterized by XRD, SEM, EDAX and UV techniques. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern analyses reveal crystalline size of the nanoparticles. The morphology and purity of sample was analyses by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Energy Dispersion X-ray Diffraction (EDAX) analysis. The optical properties carried out by Ultra-Violet spectroscopy (UV). The results are matches well with standard values.
