Structural and Morphological of Ti Doped ZrO₂ Nanoparticles Synthesized by a Microwave Irradiation Method

摘要

Pure and Ti doped ZrO_(2) nanostructures have been synthesized by microwave irradiation method. The prepared nanoparticles have been characterized by various analytical techniques like X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infra-Red Spectroscopy (FTIR), Scanning ElectronMicroscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive Spectrum (EDS) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). The XRD pattern of Ti doped ZrO_(2) nanoparticles have been confirms that the cubic structure. The SEM results show that the synthesized nanoparticles have good polycrystalline nature. TEMobservations indicated that the average particle size of the pure ZrO_(2) nanoparticles agglomeration in the range of 22–52 nm. Whereas on addition of Ti nearly spherical shaped in the range of 42–64 nm.
