Microwave Assisted Ultra Fast Synthesis of 1-D Molybdenum Oxide Nanocrystals: Structural and Electrical Studies

Abstract:

Molybdenum oxide (M_oO₃) is a well known transition metal oxide with multi phase properties that permit novel applications in sensors and batter systems. In this paper, we report a new approach to synthesize meta-stable structured molybdenum oxide (M_oO₃) by microwave assisted solution precipitation method using a domestic microwave oven. The reaction is carried out in a short period of 5 min. The XRD results confirms that the powder exhibits single phase hexagonal M_oO₃ with lattice parameter a= 10.53 Å and c = 14.907 Å. SEM images show, the particles are one dimensional (1-D) structure with hexagonal cross section and EDX spectrum confirm that the particles comprise of only molybdenum and oxygen. Further, the thermal and electrical properties are investigated by thermo gravimetric and impedance analysis and the results are discussed.
