Synthesis, characterization, and investigation of optical and magnetic properties of cobalt oxide (Co3O4) nanoparticles

Spinel-type cobalt oxide (Co 3 O 4 ) nanoparticles have been easily prepared through a simple thermal decomposition route at low temperature (175°C) using carbonatotetra(ammine)cobalt(III) nitrate complex, [Co(NH 3 ) 4 CO 3 ]NO 3 ·H 2 O, as a new precursor. The structure and morphology of as-prepare... View More
