Abstract :

An improved way and surfactant free approach has been employed for the synthesis of Bismuth oxide (Bi2O3) nanoparticles at very low temperature of 110�°C. This new approach is based on a reaction of bismuth powder and de-ionized (DI) water without the use of any additives or surfactants. XRD and SEM have been employed to characterize the Bi2O3 nanoparticles. By the morphological investigations using SEM, it was observed that the grown Bi2O3 products are having dimensions in the range of 3 nm to 25 nm. The reported method besides being organics free is economical, fast and free of pollution, which will make it suitable for large scale production.
