Synthesis, Characterization of In2O3 Nanocrystals and Their Photoluminescence Property

In2O3 nanocrystals have been solvothermally synthesized using indium acetylacetonate as precursor. The morphologies of nanocrystals, e.g. nanocuboids and nanoflowers, could be tunable by adjusting the solvent such as ethanol, toluene. The as-prepared products were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM), High-Resolution transmission electron microscope (HR-TEM) and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) techniques in detail. UV-vis absorption spectroscopy and photoluminescence spectrums of nanocrystals are also detected
