INFLUENCE OF AG, AU AND PD NOBLE METALS DOPING ON STRUCTURAL, OPTICAL AND ANTIMICROBIAL PROPERTIES OF ZINC OXIDE AND TITANIUM DIOXIDE NANOMATERIALS

Influence of Ag, Au and Pd noble metals doping on structural, optical and antimicrobial properties of zinc oxide and titanium dioxide nanomaterials

Oxide materials (ZnO, TiO2) doped with noble metals were synthesized using the combustion technique.The results of the addition of Ag, Au, and Pd up to a concentration of 2 mol% on the structural, optical, morphological and antimicrobial properties was considered.X-ray diffraction experiments revealed that the crystal structure of the host material
