Preparation of ZrO₂ Spherical Nanoparticles Used for Photonic Crystal

Abstract:

ZrO₂ spherical nanoparticles were prepared by rheological phase reaction. The crystal structure, morphology and formation mechanism were characterized with X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectrum (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), etc. Then three-dimensional photonic crystal was synthesized by sol-gel method and using surfactant as template. The study showed that well-controlled spherical particle is helpful to preparation of photonic crystal with adjustable apertures. Mesoporous ZrO₂ was obtained with narrow pore size distributions.
