Synthesis of zinc oxide nanofibers and optical properties of zinc oxide

This research studied and investigated the synthesis of zinc oxide nanofibers by the electrospinning method. Zinc oxide nanofibers have attracted the attention of researchers and industrialists in various fields due to the potential applications of semiconductor, optical, piezoelectric, and pyroelectric properties. For this purpose, zinc oxide nanofibers were first prepared using zinc acetate and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) precursors using the electrospinning method. Then it was placed in the oven at ۵۰۰ degrees Celsius and finally, the obtained nanofibers were characterized using X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Visible-Ultraviolet (UV) Spectroscopy, and Photoluminescence Spectroscopy ( PL), Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FTIR) was studied. The results obtained from the analyzes showed that the synthesis of zinc oxide nanofibers with their optical properties was well-formed.
