Investigations on Microwave Assisted Synthesis and Characterization of Bi₂WO₆ Nanoparticles

Abstract:

Bismuth tungstate (Bi₂WO₆) nanoparticles were synthesized by microwave assisted method. The prepared nanoparticles were investigated by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), UV-visible spectroscopy and dielectric studies. The formation of Bi₂WO₆ nanoparticles was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The morphology of Bi₂WO₆ nanoparticle was characterized using scanning electron microscopy SEM. The optical properties were studied by the UV-Visible absorption spectrum. The dielectric properties of Bi₂WO₆ nanoparticles were studied. The activation energy was calculated from AC conductivity studies.Key words: Bi₂WO₆ nanoparticles, XRD, SEM, TEM, UV analysis, Dielectric studies and AC conductivity studies
