Popis: | V2-xNi3xO5-δ (V-Ni-O) based multi-cation materials have been prepared by high-temperature solid-state reaction for x between 0.03 and 0.06. The as synthesized V-Ni-O complex ceramic materials were subjected to microstructure profiling and photoluminescence studies. Structural analysis by x-ray diffraction pattern shows preferential growth direction analogous to that of V2O5. Scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy shows dense lattice and the presence of Ni cations. Photoluminescence spectra of the samples exhibited both near band edge and deep level emissions. The optical band gap is found restructured in the compound due to the presence of Ni. The observed band edge emissions are broad with significant Gaussian asymmetry and are deconvoluted for individual components. The luminescent peaks between 2.28 eV and 2.31 eV have been observed for varying mole fractions. |
