Improvement of radiation stability of ZnO powder by modification with CeO2 nanoparticles
Source abstract
Abstract
The purpose of the paper is to study the efficiency of modification with CeO2 nanoparticles (average particle size — 20–30 nm) in a concentration range from 0.1 to 10 wt.% aimed at improving the optical features and radiation stability of micron-sized ZnO powders. The optimal concentration of CeO2 nanoparticles, 3 wt.%, was determined. The change of the solar absorptance in a range of 0.2 to 2.2 µm after electron irradiation of the modified powder (E = 30 keV, F = 2·1016 cm−2) is 1.41 less compared to the unmodified powder. The paper demonstrates that the increase in radiation stability of zinc oxide powders modified with cerium dioxide nanoparticles is provided by two mechanisms: relaxation of primary defects on nanoparticles and capture of formed free electrons by cations of a rare-earth element.
