Abstract
Rhombohedral α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles doped with silver (Ag-α-Fe2O3) were successfully synthesized using a hydrothermal method. The structural characteristics and morphology of the synthesized nanoparticles were examined using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), wherein the Raman peak was observed at 218/cm. The electrical properties of the Ag-doped α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles layered in polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) film were analyzed through I-V curves, impedance graphs, and measurements of dielectric constant (Ɛ) and dielectric loss (Ɛ′). Through the I-V curve, a current value of 3.68 × 10−2 μA was obtained, which was 52 % greater than that of the PVA film at an applied voltage of ± 100 V. The results demonstrated that the Ag-doped α-Fe2O3 in the PVA film exhibited enhanced electrical properties, with significant increases in both dielectric constant (0.5 × 103) and dielectric loss (11 × 103). Ag-doped α-Fe2O3 in PVA film, therefore, appears to be a promising applicants in Nano electronics.
期刊介绍:
The journal provides an international medium for the publication of theoretical and experimental studies and reviews related to the electronic, electrochemical, ionic, magnetic, optical, and biosensing properties of solid state materials in bulk, thin film and particulate forms. Papers dealing with synthesis, processing, characterization, structure, physical properties and computational aspects of nano-crystalline, crystalline, amorphous and glassy forms of ceramics, semiconductors, layered insertion compounds, low-dimensional compounds and systems, fast-ion conductors, polymers and dielectrics are viewed as suitable for publication. Articles focused on nano-structured aspects of these advanced solid-state materials will also be considered suitable.
