Green Synthesis and Characterization of a ZnO-ZrO<sub>2</sub> Heterojunction for Environmental and Biological Applications

Green Synthesis and Characterization of a ZnO-ZrO<sub>2</sub> Heterojunction for Environmental and Biological Applications

The zinc oxide–zirconium dioxide (ZnO-ZrO<sub>2</sub>) heterojunction was prepared by a green method using rubber leaves as reducing and capping agents. Various physicochemical techniques were used to study the chemical composition and the structural and optical properties of the synthes...
