Synthesis and Antifungal Property of Mg Doped Zinc Oxide Nanocubes on the Glass Substrate Using Solution-Evaporation Method at Low Temperature

Article Preview

Abstract:

This in this paper, we report the synthesis of Mg doped ZnO nanocubes on the glass substrate by using solution-evaporation method at low temperature for the first time. Samples are characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The samples have a pure phase and no characteristic peaks are observed for the other impurities, such as Mg and MgO. It was observed that the length and width of the ZnO nanocubes are about 100nm and morphology of the samples is cube-shape. A blue-shift is observed in the band-edge with introduction of Mg into zinc oxide structure. The anti-fungal results indicate that ZnO nanocubes arrays exhibit stable properties after two months and play an important role in growth inhibitory of Candida albicans.
