Review on the Synthesis Method of Nano Composites and Approach to Making Semiconductors Visible Light Active
Author(s): Abdu Hussen Ali*
Many studies have been concentrated on the degradation of toxic organic compounds in waste water via photo catalysis of various semiconductors. It has attracted great attention in modern science because of its potential in solving many current environmental problems such as air and water pollution. The common photo catalysts are primarily nano composite metal oxides, are known to be good photo catalysts for the degradation of several environmental contaminants due to their high photosensitivity, stability and non-toxic nature. There are different approaches for the synthesis of nanomaterials: Top down and bottom up approaches. Top-down approach is best approach and refers to successive cutting of a bulk material to get nano sized particles. These applications have their interest in controlling particle size, particle shape, size distribution, particle composition and degree of particl.. View More»
