Abstract

Abstrak. Sel surya berbasis perovskite merupakan sel fotovoltaik generasi terakhir yang mampu memanfaatkan energi surya dengan efisiensi tinggi dan dapat difabrikasi melalui proses yang sederhana dan murah. Sejak diperkenalkannya perovskite solar cell (PSC), efisiensi konversi dayanya telah mencapai efisiensi di atas 23% dalam waktu yang relatif singkat diiringi dengan peningkatan publikasi ilmiah di bidang ini. Penggunaan semikonduktor ZnO sebagai Electron Transport Material (ETM) yang merupakan salah satu bagian utama dalam PSC mulai dilirik akibat proses pembuatan yang lebih sederhana dibandingkan TiO2. Seng oksida (ZnO) masih memiliki kelemahan yang dapat diatasi dengan penambahan ZnS untuk mengurangi rekombinasi pembawa muatan dari lapisan perovskite ke ETM. Tujuan dari artikel ini adalah untuk menyajikan tinjauan singkat tentang status terkini mengenai komposit ZnO/ZnS sebagai elektron transport material pada sel surya perovskit. Ulasan ini juga membahas peran penambahan ZnS dalam memperbaiki morfologi dalam ukuran nano dan sifat optik material sekaligus meningkatkan kinerja PSC beserta penjelasan mengenai mekanisme dasar operasi piranti untuk memberikan pemahaman yang lebih baik tentang sifat dari ZnO/ZnS sebagai ETM pada sel surya perovskit. Abstract. Perovskite-based solar cells are the latest generation of photovoltaic cells capable of utilizing solar energy at high efficiency and can be fabricated through a simple and inexpensive process. Since the introduction of the perovskite solar cell (PSC), its power conversion efficiency has reached efficiencies above 23% in a relatively short period of time accompanied by an increase in scientific publications in this field. The use of ZnO semiconductors as Electron Transport Material (ETM), which is one of the main parts of PSC, has begun to be noticed due to the simpler manufacturing process compared to TiO2. Zinc oxide (ZnO) still has a weakness which can be overcome by adding ZnS to reduce the recombination of the charge carriers from the perovskite layer to the ETM. The aim of this article is to present a brief overview of the current status of ZnO/ZnS composites as an electron transport material in perovskite solar cells. This review also discusses the role of addition of ZnS in improving morphology in nanosize and optical properties of materials as well as improving PSC performance along with an explanation of the basic mechanism of device operation to provide a better understanding of the properties of ZnO/ZnS as ETM in perovskite solar cells. Keywords: Perovskite solar cell, Composite, ZnO, ZnS dan Electron Transport Material.

 Abstrak. Dalam rangka mengurangi pemakaian bahan kimia berbahaya, kini telah mulai dikembangkan penggunaan bahan alami pada proses pembentukan nanopartikel. Pada penelitian ini, biosintesis nanopartikel ZnO dilakukan menggunakan ekstrak kulit Ananas comosus sebagai agen capping sekaligus agen pereduksi. Seng nitrat digunakan sebagai prekursor dari ion seng, sedangkan kulit nanas dibuat menjadi ekstrak untuk dimanfaatkan kandungan antioksidannya. Sampel ZnO dipelajari sifat fisisnya dari hasil karakterisasi X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) dan spektroskopi UV-Vis. Berdasarkan pola XRD, nanopartikel ZnO memberikan fasa kristal heksagonal wurtzite dengan ukuran kristal 14 nm. Morfologi SEM masing-masing sampel didapatkan berbentuk bunga atau micro-nanoflower dengan ukuran diameter rata-rata 510 nm dan 560 nm untuk sampel 0,01 M dan 0,025 M. Hasil spektrum absorbansi UV-Vis menunjukkan peningkatan puncak penyerapan cahaya dengan penambahan konsentrasi seng nitrat. Berdasarkan informasi sifat fisis ini, sampel ZnO berpotensi diaplikasikan sebagai material fotokatalis.Abstract. In order to reduce the use of hazardous chemicals, the use of natural ingredients has now been developed in the process of forming nanoparticles. In this study, biosynthesis of ZnO nanoparticles was carried out using Ananas comosus peel extract as capping agent and reducing agent. Zinc nitrate was used as a precursor to zinc ion. The physical properties of ZnO samples were studied from the characterization result of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), UV-Vis spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The SEM morphology of each different sample was obtained in the form of micro-nanoflower with an average diameter  of 510 nm and 560 nm for 0.01 M and 0.025 M samples, respectively. The UV-Vis absorbance spectrum results showed an increase in the light absorption peak as  zinc nitrate concentration increased. According to the XRD pattern, the ZnO nanoparticles possessed an hexagonal wurtzite crystal phase with a crystal size of 14 nm. Based on this information on physical properties, the ZnO sample has the potential to be applied as a photocatalyst material.

Abstract

Nanotechnology is developing rapidly with a variety of synthetic materials, apart from the perceived work efficiency, which is also prioritized in terms of safety and non-toxicity. The synthesis that has the potential to be carried out based on these criteria is the type of Ag-doped ZnO nanoparticles. ZnO nanoparticles were prepared by a biosynthetic method using pineapple peel extract as a reducing agent. This study aims to look at the effect of adding Ag to ZnO nanoparticles. The percentage variation of Ag to ZnO is 1%, 3%, and 5%. The pineapple peel extract was mixed with 0.05 M (Zn(NO3)2)·6H2O and 0.05 M AgNO3 precursor solutions. The solution was heated at 80 °C for 2 hours. The results of the biosynthesis were characterized using Spectroscopy UV-Vis, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The UV-Vis spectrum informs that strong absorption occurs at wavelengths below 400 nm. The maximum absorption is shown by sample ZnO:Ag 3% and the minimum absorption is shown by the pure ZnO sample. XRD characterization showed that the formation of seven diffraction peaks occurs at a diffraction angle (2θ) of: 31.729°; 34,397°; 36,214°; 47,467°; 56,541°; 62.831°; and 67.922°. The SEM results showed surface morphology of ZnO and ZnO:Ag 1% samples are floral and spherical, while ZnO:Ag 3%  and ZnO:Ag 5% samples are coral rocks.

Abstract

Sulfur-doped zinc oxide (S-ZnO) nanorod has been successfully synthesized via the seed-mediated hydrothermal method with different sulfur concentrations (0%, 1%, 2.5%). This research aims to study the influence of the concentration of sulfur on the structure, morphology, and optical properties of ZnO as a promising material in a wide range of applications. Crystal structure, morphology, and optical properties of the samples were characterized using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Field Emission Electron Scanning Microscopy (FESEM), and UV-Vis Spectroscopy, respectively. The XRD pattern shows the strongest peak at 2θ = 34.43° for crystal orientation of (002). The crystallinity properties of the S-ZnO sample are higher compared to the ZnO sample. The FESEM images of the 1% S-ZnO sample exhibit the highest nanorod density arrangement. The optical absorbance of the higher sulfur dopant possesses a higher optical absorption peak on the UV-Vis spectrum. The results indicate that S doping to ZnO can alter the structural, morphological, and optical properties of ZnO.

Abstract

Silver (Ag) nanoparticles have recently been widely applied due to its high surface plasmon resonance (SPR) properties compared to other metals. In this present work, Ag nanoparticles were prepared through a green synthesis technique that uses sentul peel extracts as a reducing agent. Ag nanoparticles were prepared by reacting AgNO3 and the extract at the volume ratios of 4:1, 3:2, and 1:1. These solutions were heated at 80°C for 30 minutes to form colloidal silver nanoparticles. The optical properties of Ag nanoparticles were characterized using UV-Vis and FTIR spectroscopy. Furthermore, Ag nanoparticles were tested as an indicator of mercury metal detection in term of colorimetric. The UV-Vis absorbance peak of Ag nanoparticles was obtained at wavelengths of 409 nm, 408 nm, and 402 nm. The FTIR spectrum showed the presence of four functional groups, namely, C≡C, C=O, HC≡CH, and O-H. The optimum sample of Ag nanoparticles in the detection of metallic mercury is the 4:1 sample because it shows a significant colour change.

Abstract

Zinc oxide (ZnO) synthesized with natural reductants has attracted the attention of researchers because it is environmentally friendly and non-toxic. In this study, ZnO was prepared using Sandoricum koetjape (S. koetjape) peel extract. An aqueous extract of S. koetjape peel was used as biological reduction agent for the synthesis of ZnO from zinc nitrate hexahydrate. The ZnO powder obtained was annealed at different temperatures i.e, 300°C, 400°C, and 500°C for 1 hour. Structural, morphological, optical properties, and functional groups of samples were analyzed using X-Ray Diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscopy, UV-Vis Spectroscopy, and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, respectively. The X-ray diffraction pattern shows that pure hexagonal wurtzite structure of ZnO particles can be achieved after annealing. The crystal size has also increased with increasing annealing temperature. SEM photo demonstrates the transformation of ZnO particle from spherical to microflower due to annealing. The widest absorption peaks in the UV-Vis spectrum was occurred after annealing at 500°C. The bandgap energy of ZnO increases after annealing from 3.08 eV to 3.20 eV. The FT-IR analysis confirms O-H functional group from extract has been decomposed due to the annealing process. Based on this study, biosynthesized ZnO using Sandoricum koetjape peel extract requires annealing process to improve the purity, enhance the light absorbance and change the microstructure of ZnO.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the physical characteristics and photocatalyst activity of biosynthesized ZnO with pineapple (Ananas comosus) peel extract under microwave irradiation. The ZnO powder was prepared in two different concentrations of zinc nitrate hexahydrate (ZNH) at 200mM (Z-200) and 500 mM (Z-500). The optical, structural, and morphological properties of ZnO were analyzed using UV-Vis spectroscopy, X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), respectively. The UV-Vis absorption spectrum showed a wide absorbance peak of ZnO at the wavelength of 300-360 nm with a bandgap energy of 3.22 and 3.25 eV. The XRD result confirmed the wurtzite structure of ZnO with high crystallinity. SEM morphology showed spherical particles with an average particle size of 190-220 nm. For photocatalytic application, ZnO film was fabricated via the doctor blade method from microwave-assisted biosynthesized ZnO powder. ZnO films were then applied under UV-irradiation to examine the photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue. It was found that the catalytic behavior of ZnO film was affected by the starting ZNH concentration with maximum effectiveness of 46% degradation after 2 h.

Abstract

In this paper, the flower-shaped ZnO particles have been prepared via microwave-assisted biosynthesis technique using an aqueous extract of Sandoricum koetjape peel at various irradiation powers, i.e. 180, 360, 540, and 720 Watt. The synthesized flower-shaped ZnO particles were characterized using UV-Vis spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction (XRD), and field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM). The UV-vis spectra exhibited ZnO absorption peaks in the UV region with band gap energy in the range of 3.25 - 3.29 eV. XRD analysis confirmed the hexagonal wurtzite crystal with the high purity of ZnO particles. The flower-shaped morphology of ZnO was evident in FESEM images with the decrease of particle diameter as the radiation power increased from 257 to 447 nm. ZnO prepared at 720 Watt (Z-720) succeeded in degrading 4-nitrophenol with the highest efficiency of 84.8 % after 240 min. Consequently, biosynthesis ZnO will have a great opportunity to be applied in degrading wastewater pollutants.

Abstract

In this work, ZnO photocatalyst has been synthesized using matoa (Pometia pinnata) leaf extract under various microwave irradiation powers at 360, 540, and 720 Watts for 3 minutes on each. The UV-Vis absorption spectra of ZnO exhibited a peak in the ultraviolet region 300-360 nm. UV-Vis absorption analysis revealed a decrease in the band gap energy from 3.15 eV to 3.10 eV as the irradiation power increased. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) images displayed spherical and nanoplatelet morphology with a decrease in particle size observed from 773 to 709 nm with increasing irradiation power. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed the hexagonal wurtzite structure of ZnO with crystallite sizes in the range of ~18-20 nm. The synthesized ZnO nanoparticles was successfully employed as a photocatalyst in 4-nitrophenol degradation, achieving the highest degradation percentage of 82.7% at 540 Watts with a corresponding reaction rate constant of 0.0126/min. In conclusion, the microwave-assisted synthesis of ZnO using on matoa leaf extract demonstrated significant potential for the degradation of organic pollutants, thereby contributing to water purification efforts.

Abstract

Although ZnO photocatalysts show potential for wastewater treatment, their low efficiency limits the commercialization. To address this problem, we investigated the effect of co-doping ZnO with selenium (4%, fixed) and sulfur (0.5, 1, and 1.5 wt%). The catalysts were synthesized using Matoa leaf extract and zinc nitrate hexahydrate while being subjected to 540 W microwave irradiation. UV-Vis analysis revealed absorption peaks at 340-398 nm with sulfur doping increasing the band gap. XRD confirmed the preservation of the hexagonal wurtzite structure, while FESEM images showed a morphological transformation from nanoflowers to petal flakes with increasing sulfur content. EDX analysis confirmed the presence of S, Se, Zn, and O, while FTIR analysis identified OH groups from the extract in the nanoparticles. BET surface area was found to progressively reduced from 24.58 to 16.86 m²/g with sulfur doping. The co-doped catalyst with 0.5 wt% sulfur (0.5S(4Se-ZnO)) demonstrated the highest degradation of 4-nitrophenol at 99.69%, indicating its applicability in industrial wastewater treatment. These findings indicate that the Se/S co-doped ZnO, prepared via a green synthesis route, holds a strong promise as an efficient and practical photocatalyst for addressing environmental pollution in a sustainable and economical manner.
