This paper will present on preparation and characterizations of hybrid nanoTiO2/ZnO using sol-gel spin coating techniques. The study involved of modification band-gap energy of Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) at different precursor molecular concentration of Zinc oxide (ZnO). The FESEM (Field emission scanning electron microscope) morphological characterize shows TiO2 and ZnO particle produced at nanoscale size. The compositional of both particles confirmed using EDAX (Energy Disperse Analyzer X-ray) analysis. The XRD (X-Ray diffraction) characterize measured the structural properties of anatase and rutile for TiO2 as well as zincite for ZnO. By increasing ZnO molecular concentration, the crystallite size, d were decreased until the optimum sample, ratio of 4 TiO2 : 1 ZnO, with value of 23.71 nm. For UV-VIS (Ultra-Violet/Visible Spectroscopy) measurement, we found the optical band-gap increased with increasing ZnO molecular concentration. The optical band-gap for optimum sample was 3.38 e.V represented this study has successfully improved the optical band-gap of TiO2. |
