Structural, electrostatic force microscopy, work function, and optical characterization of pure and Al-doped ZnO nanoparticles

The electrical and optical characteristics of pure and Al-doped zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles were analyzed. The work function of these nanoparticles was investigated using Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy (KPFM). The work function of the Al-doped ZnO nanoparticles was found to be lower than that of u...
