Influence of europium ion doping on photoinduced properties of 2D cobalt hydroxide: photocatalytic degradation and negative photoconductivity studies
Key Points
Thermal stability improves with europium ion doping in cobalt hydroxide, enhancing its properties.
The incorporation of europium ions leads to significant changes in photocatalytic degradation rates.
Observational analysis of europium-doped cobalt hydroxide nanosheets highlights their unique photoinduced properties.
These findings suggest new applications for europium-doped materials in photocatalysis and electronic devices.
Abstract
Europium-doped cobalt hydroxide nanosheets were successfully synthesized. The incoporation of Eu ions induced a rise in thermal stabililty and negative photoconductivity of the material.
