Abstract

A mixture of bismuth nitrate and urea is taken in 1:5 molar ratio and heated on hot water bath. A precipitate is formed on evaporation of the water which on decomposition at 400°C produces nanocrystalline Bi ₂O₃ particles. Formation of nano crystallites of Bi ₂O₃ is confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) study. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) investigations revealed for these powders an average particle size of 50 nm.
