| Summary: | This study has been done to synthesis' Graphene Oxide added Zinc Oxide
(GO/ZnO) nanostructure coated on glass substrate using aqueous solution
immersion method. ZnO and GO/ZnO were prepared' at different concentration
ranging from 0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4 and 0.5 mg/ml. From the X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) ,
results, pure ZnO and GO/ZnO nanorods thin films added at different
concentration were in polycrystalline wurtzite structure. All nanorod thin film
sample show the highest intensity peak along (002) c-axis orientation. The optical
transmission of GO/ZnO nanorods thin films increased gradually when added
with GO compared to pure ZnO. The highest absorbance spectra were belonging
to GO/ZnO nanorods thin films which prepared at 0.4 mg/ml concentration.
Energy-dispersive X-Ray spectroscopy (EDX) results shows the composition of
Carbon (C), Oxygen (0), and Zinc (Zn) which confirms element of the materials.
Field Emission Electron Microscope (FESEM) analysis, observed that GO/ZnO
thin films are in nanorod shapes. Based on the results the properties of ZnO could
be improved when added with GO without changing the ZnO structure wurtzite.
Hence, it can be used for electronic device application. |
