Baddeleyite Type Monoclinic Zirconium Oxide Nanocrystals Formation

摘要

We report successful synthesis of baddeleyite type monoclinic zirconium oxide nanocrystals formation. The product mixture of zirconium incubated at room temperature for 7 days were thoroughly investigated employing X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy studies. XRD and Raman studies revealed the formation of baddeleyite type monoclinic zirconium oxide nanocrystals. TEM studies revealed the nanocrystal formation with size ranging from 100 nm to 200 nm.
