Summary: | Nanostructure such as quaternary alloy offers an unprecedented opportunity for alloy composition control in a wide range, unavailable with traditional epitaxial film materials. The technique of chemical co-precipitation has been employed to synthesize the NiZnFe2O3 quaternary alloy nanostructure, which is cost-effective and friendly environmentally. The study of morphology for the mentioned NiZnFe2O3 quaternary alloy nanostructure is elaborated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to measure the grain size. The optical properties are investigated via UV-visible spectrophotometry (UV-vis) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) to research the absorption, transmission, reflection and bandgap for the mentioned NiZnFe2O3 quaternary alloy nanostructure, also, for verifying optical dielectric constant and refractive index models using specific empirical models. The grains size and energy gap are investigated to recommend the suitability results for NiZnFe2O3 quaternary alloy nanostructure. Finally, Ravindra et al. models are an appropriate for potential application in optoelectronics. |
