Characterization of undoped and Zn doped Pbi2 nanostructures

Lead iodide is one of the most important materials used in x-ray detectors. It is prepared from the chemical reaction of lead nitrate Pb(NO3)2 with potassium iodide (KI). Undoped and Zn doped Lead iodide (PbI2) nanostructure was successfully prepared by thermal evaporation method on a glass substrate at room temperature. Recently progress has been made on the synthesis physical and chemical characterization of both theoretical and experimental studies within a range less than 100 nm that exhibits size-dependent properties. A quite good quantity of research papers have been published on PbI2 within the past decades. New fundamental research is paralleled with original and inspired potential applications including modeling analysis and characterization for energy conversion and interfacing with living cells. The focus of this book is synthesis structural optical electrical and morphological properties. Furthermore it is devoted to new nanotechnology tools and technological procedures useful for the developed community of science society improved economy and best future.
