We report structural,optical,and ferroelectric behaviors of lithium-doped copper oxide(Cu1-xLixO with x =0.0,0.05,0.07,and 0.09) nanostructures synthesized by hydrothermal method.The XRD pattern indicates the pure phase formation of CuO without any impurity,and the crystallite size is found to be increases for x =0–0.07 and decreases for x =0.09.FESEM analysis shows that the average size of Cu1-xLixO nanostructures increases with the increasing the Li-doping concentrations up to 7% and then decreases for 9% Li doping concentration.Moreover,Raman and photoluminescence spectrum also confirm the phase formation of CuO.A significant reduction in optical band gap is observed up to x =0.07,and then band gap increases for x =0.09 due to segregation of the impurities on the surface or grain boundaries,which may suppress the grain growth and results the enhancement in optical band gap.Moreover,a weak ferroelectricity is observed in CuO nanostructures for pure and 9% Li doping through polarization versus electric field(P–E).
We report structural, optical, and ferroelectric behaviors of lithium-doped copper oxide (Cu1-xLixO with x = 0.0,0.05,0.07, and 0.09) nanostructures synthesized by hydrothermal method. The XRD pattern indicates the pure phase formation of CuO without any impurity , and the crystallite size is found to be increases for x = 0-0.07 and decreases for x = 0.09.FESEM analysis shows that the average size of Cu1-xLixO nanostructures increases with the increasing the Li-doping concentrations up to 7% and then decreases for 9% Li doping concentration. Moreover, Raman and photoluminescence spectrum also confirm the phase formation of CuO. A significant reduction in optical band gap is observed up to x = 0.07, and then band gap increases for x = 0.09 due to segregation of the impurities on the surface or grain boundaries, which may suppress the grain growth and results in enhancement in optical band gap. Moreover, a weak ferroelectricity is observed in CuO nanostructures for pure and 9% Li doping through polariza tion versus electric field (P-E).
