Simple and low-cost solution method for cobalt doped CuO nanostructured powder
Keywords:
Cobalt, CuO, CBD, Impurity Level, MicroplateAbstract
In present work, pure and Co doped nanostructured powder were fabricated by chemical bath deposition method. X-ray analysis reveals that both pure and Co doped CuO have monoclinic crystal structure. After introducing Co2+ ions into the host, the crystalline percentage was decreased. The dislocation density and the microstrain were increased with Co addition. It is observed that pure CuO has nanoplate-assembled structure whereas CuO:Co nanostructured powder has irregular microplate-like particles. Besides, Cu, Co, and O peaks are observed in EDX spectrum. The optical band gap energy reduced from 1.62 to 1.59 eV after CuO doped with Co. The electrical activation energy values were calculated for both pure and Co doped CuO as 0.134 eV and 0.232 eV, respectively.
