研究目的
To investigate the effect of Mn dopant on the morphological and structural properties of prepared nanopowders in detail.
研究成果
Mn-doped ZnO nanopowders were successfully synthesized with hexagonal wurtzite structure. Increased Mn doping led to larger lattice parameters, smaller nanorod diameters, and coexistence of Mn2+ and Mn4+ oxidation states. These properties make the materials suitable for optoelectronic and sensor applications.
研究不足
The study focuses on structural and morphological properties; magnetic or electrical properties were not investigated. The synthesis method may have limitations in scalability or reproducibility for industrial applications.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study used the microwave-assisted hydrothermal (MW-HTS) method for synthesis, chosen for its simplicity and control over nanostructure formation. Theoretical models included the Harris method for texture coefficient calculation and equations for lattice parameters.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Undoped and Mn-doped ZnO nanopowders with doping ratios of 1%, 5%, and 10% were synthesized. Precursors included zinc acetate and manganese(II) acetate tetrahydrate.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment: CEM Mars 6 microwave oven, BRUKER D2 Phaser X-ray diffractometer, ZEISS Ultraplus FESEM, SPECS XPS spectrometer, BRUKER-IFS 66 v/S FT-IR spectrometer. Materials: Manganese(II) acetate tetrahydrate (Mn(CH3COO)2·4H2O, 99.9%, Acros), zinc acetate.
4：9%, Acros), zinc acetate. Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
4. Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow: Solutions of ZnAc and MnAc were prepared; MnAc was added at specified ratios. The mixture was processed in the microwave oven. Samples were characterized using XRD for structure, SEM for morphology, XPS for composition and oxidation states, and FTIR for chemical bonds.
5：Data Analysis Methods:
XRD data analyzed for crystal structure and lattice parameters using standard equations; SEM images analyzed for morphology; XPS spectra analyzed for elemental composition and oxidation states via Gaussian fitting; FTIR spectra analyzed for bond vibrations.
