Abstract

Bis(8-hydroxyquinoline)zinc nanoparticles were synthesized by simple precipitation method using polyethylene glycol as a capping agent. The crystalline natures of the particles were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction analysis. The morphology and the presence of elements in the nanoparticles were confirmed by scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray analysis. The presence of functional groups of the particles was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis. The wavelength and band gap of the particles are determined from the UV-visible spectrum. Band emission peak was observed from the photoluminescence spectrum to confirm the possible applications in organic light emitting devices.
