  Investigation of the Optical-Electrical Properties of Simonkolleite and ZnO: Synergism and Nano/Microcrystals

  By Anielle Christine Almeida Silva

  Abstract: This study aimed to investigate the optical-electrical properties of simonkolleite (SM) and zinc oxide (ZnO), focusing on ZnO's nano/micro size and the synergistic effects between SM and ZnO. The synthesis of SM nanocrystals (NCs) was successfully achieved, and thermal annealing temperature was used to manipulate the formation of SM/ZnO nanocomposites ranging from NCs to microcrystals of ZnO. Structural and morphological properties were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD),Fourier transforms infrared (FT-IR), …
