Borosilicate BK7 glasses doped with different amounts of CeO2 (0.5,1,1.5%) were prepared by the convenient melting process in this work. DTA analysis proved that 0.5-1% CeO2 has a network modifier role and then up to 1.5% it shows network former role.For structural studies, FT-IR and Raman spectroscopy were carried out. Fermi energy level, direct/ indirect optical band gap and Urbach energy wer...

   The mixed metal nanocomposite MgO∙Al2O3∙ZnO has been prepared by coprecipitation method. The product was characterized by XRD. The average particle size was found to be 34.89 nm from XRD data. SEM and SEM-EDS were studied for evaluating surface morphology and elemental composition. The FTIR spectrum of prepared mixed metal nanocomposites MgO∙Al2O3</s...
