Abstract

Nanocrystalline ZnO doped with different ions shows improved electronic, optical, catalytic or antiseptic properties with high potential for high tech applications. These properties are strongly dependant on the microstructure and surface characteristics. New processes for the synthesis and processing are required to control and optimize the chemical composition, crystalline sizes and grain morphology. We present original results on the synthesis of zinc oxide powders with different Al content by two different procedures: hydrothermal route starting from soluble aqueous precursors and evaporation-condensation in a solar furnace of the hydrothermal synthesised powders.

The influence of the synthesis parameters on the chemical and microstructural characteristics of nanophases synthesized in the two methods has been studied using chemical analytical methods, XRD, BET, picnometric density, SEM and TEM. Some results on the luminescence properties of Al-doped ZnO nanopowders are finally presented.
