Abstract:Yttrium (Y) and cerium (Ce) co-doped ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized via the simple sol–gel auto-combustion route. The effect of Ce and Y doping on the structure, morphology, optical, Zeta potential, and photocatalytic activities of ZnO NPs was examined by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometer, X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM), UV–vis spectrophotometer, and Zetasizer instrument. XRD data show that the fabricated samples crystallize into a hexagonal wurtzite structure. The dopants Y and Ce affect the crystal structure of ZnO NPs. The crystallite size is reduced with the co-doping effect. TEM results confirm the nano-sized particles of the prepared samples. An increase in optical bandgap values from 3.19 eV for x = 0.0 to 3.22, 3.24, and 3.25 eV for x = 0.01, 0.03, and 0.05 samples was confirmed by UV–Vis spectroscopy analysis. Y and Ce co-doped ZnO nanoparticles show significant alteration of zeta potential and photocatalytic properties compared to undoped ZnO NPs. Comparatively, undoped ZnO shows better stability in deionized water as compared to Ce–Y doped ZnO NPs and exhibits high photocatalytic activity (degradation rate, 97.92%) for methyl orange (MO) degradation.
Keywords:ZnO nanoparticles  Co-doping  Rare earth  Structure  Bandgap energy  Photocatalytic activity
