Preparation And Characterization Of NiO:S2 Nanocrystals

This study aims to provide an updated survey of the main synthesis methods of nickel oxide (NiO) nano particles in order to obtain tailored nano systems for various applications. In recent years, nano structures of transition metal oxides have gained a great attention from material scientists and engineers due to their different properties. Among the oxides of transition metals, NiO nanoparticles are of special interest because, metal oxide nanoparticles are promising candidates for antibacterial applications if the synergic effects of their constituents are effectively harnessed. This is particularly important keeping in mind that the type of the synthesis enhances properties like size, shape, morphology, presence and type of stress and defects in the crystal.
