研究目的
Investigating the effects of Nd and Al doping on the structure, morphology, magnetic, and photocatalytic properties of BiFeO3 (BFO) prepared by hydrothermal method.
研究成果
Nd and Al co-doping in BFO prepared by hydrothermal method affects its structure, morphology, magnetic, and photocatalytic properties. Nd doping enhances magnetism, while Al doping decreases net magnetization and alters photocatalytic efficiency, with optimal performance at x = 0.05. The study suggests potential applications in photocatalysis.
研究不足
The study is limited by the hydrothermal synthesis method's constraints, including temperature control and reaction time, which may affect the purity and properties of the synthesized samples. Additionally, the focus on room temperature measurements may not fully capture the materials' behavior under varying conditions.
