Fabrication and characterization of B-doped ZnO nanospheres synthesized on PET/ITO flexible substrates
Abstract
B doped ZnO nanospheres have been fabricated on PET-ITO flexible substrates by hydrothermal technique. The results of first-principles calculations demonstrate that the B atoms prefer to occupy the octahedral interstice positions as the interstitial atoms. The B-ZnO/PET-ITO shows high performance photocatalysis. The corresponding mechanism is discussed.
