Abstract

Nanoparticles (NPs) of nickel doped zinc oxide (NiZnO) have been fabricated through auto combustion synthesis scheme consuming zinc nitrate and citric acid. Employing X-ray diffraction examinations, the structure of synthesized nanoparticles was confirmed. The synthesized NPs' photo catalytic capabilities were evaluated with methylene blue (MB) dye degradation, in presence of natural sunlight. About 91% of MB dye solution was degraded by prepared nano powder in 90 minutes of sunlight irradiation
