Preparation of Al-doped NiO via Solvothermal Synthesis and its Crystal Structural and Electrical Properties
E-mail:
Nickel oxide was doped with a wide range of concentrations (mol%) of Aluminum (Al) by solvothermal synthesis; single-phased nano powder of nickel oxide was generated after calcination at 900oC. When the concentration of Al dopant was increased, the reduced intensity was confirmed through XRD analysis. Lattice parameters of the synthesized NiO powder were decreased after treatment of the dopant; parameters were increased when the concentration of Al was over the doping limit (5 mol% Al). The binding energy of Ni2+ was chemically shifted to Ni3+ by doping Al3+ ion, as confirmed by the XPS analysis. The tilted structure of the synthesized NiO with 5 mol% Al dopant and the polycrystalline structure of the Ni0.75Al0.25O were observed by HR-TEM analysis. The electrical conductivity of the newly synthesized NiO was highly improved by Al doping in the conductivity test. The electrical conductivity values of the commercial NiO and the synthesized NiO with 5 mol% Al dopant (Ni0.95Al0.05O) were 1,400 s/cm and 2,230 s/cm at 750oC, respectively. However, the electrical conductivity of the synthesized NiO with 10 mol% Al dopant (Ni0.9Al0.1O) decreased due to the scattering of free-electrons caused by the large number of impurity atoms; the electrical conductivity of Ni0.9Al0.1O was 545 s/cm at 750oC.
