The Cu doped NiO (NiO:Cu) nanoparticles were synthesized by co-precipitation method using NiCl2.6H2O, CuCl2.2H2O for Ni and Cu sources, respectively. Sodium hydroxide has been used as a precipitator agent. Effect of Cu doping agent on the structural and optical properties of nanostructures were characterized by XRD, SEM, AFM, spectrophotometry, FTIR a...
