Unraveling the effect of Cu doping on the structural and morphological properties and photocatalytic activity of ZrO2

Pristine ZrO2 and doped with different concentrations of Copper (0–7 %) were synthesized using a sol-gel combustion route. Several advanced techniques like XRD, EDX, TEM, XPS, P.L., and UV–vis spectrophotometer have characterized the compositions. The XRD proved that all peaks matched with a tetrago...
