The document provides an overview of an independent study on synthesizing ZnO-TiO2 core-shell nanostructures via hydrothermal method. It discusses why the topic was chosen, gives background on ZnO and TiO2, describes the hydrothermal synthesis process, experimental procedures used including growth of ZnO nanorods and deposition of TiO2 shells, and characterization techniques like XRD, SEM, and spectroscopy. The goal is to develop new efficient photocatalysts for applications like water purification.

WHY I CHOOSE THIS TOPIC ? • Harmful organic compounds in the ecological unit are the main concern for the scientific society, which is causative agent of water pollution and severe contamination of the environment. Waste-water containing organic dyes (organicpollutants) inhibit sunlight penetration which suppressesphotosynthetic reaction. • Metal oxide semi-conducting nano materials have been proven to be very efficient photocatalysts for the degradation of organic dye pollutants with the help of solar light. In particular, TiO2 and ZnO are the most versatile semiconductor oxides with applications across a wide range from cosmetics to air purification. • However, the poor consumption of solar energy and the short diffusion length of photogenerated exciton are the two key factors restrictive to further improvement of photocatalytic efficiency • develop new and efficient sunlight-sensitive photocatalysts.

- 10. HYDROTHERMAL METHODS • The term “hydrothermal” usually refers to any heterogeneous reaction in the presence of aqueous solvents or mineralizers under high pressure and temperature conditions to dissolve and recrystallize materials that are relatively insoluble under ordinary conditions. • Uses : A large number of compounds belonging to practically all classes have been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions: elements, simple and complex oxides , tungstates , molybdates , carbonates, silicates , germanates etc. Hydrothermal synthesis is commonly used to grow synthetic quartz , gems and other single crystals with commercial value.
