Abstract
Nanocrystalline α-Fe2O3 was synthesized by sol-gel technique and then characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), SEM, TEM, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, Vibrating Sample Magnetometry (VSM), and photoluminescence (PL) techniques. The X-ray powder diffraction analysis confirmed the formation of α-Fe2O3. Electron microscopy showed spherical morphologies with an average particle size of 30–40 nm. VSM study shows superparamagnetic nature of the synthesized nanoparticles. Furthermore, PL emission spectra showed an intense broad emission band centered at 570 nm with 393 nm excitation, indicating that it can be used for w-LED application. The CIE-chromaticity color coordinates of prepared material were calculated. The photocatalytic activity of the α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles was analyzed, which exhibited good photocatalytic activity for the removal AO7 from its aqueous solution.
期刊介绍：
Chemical Data Collections (CDC) provides a publication outlet for the increasing need to make research material and data easy to share and re-use. Publication of research data with CDC will allow scientists to: -Make their data easy to find and access -Benefit from the fast publication process -Contribute to proper data citation and attribution -Publish their intermediate and null/negative results -Receive recognition for the work that does not fit traditional article format. The research data will be published as ''data articles'' that support fast and easy submission and quick peer-review processes. Data articles introduced by CDC are short self-contained publications about research materials and data. They must provide the scientific context of the described work and contain the following elements: a title, list of authors (plus affiliations), abstract, keywords, graphical abstract, metadata table, main text and at least three references. The journal welcomes submissions focusing on (but not limited to) the following categories of research output: spectral data, syntheses, crystallographic data, computational simulations, molecular dynamics and models, physicochemical data, etc.
