摘要
CoAl2O4 nanocrystals were synthesized by sol-gel method using citric acid as a chelating agent at low temperature. The as-synthesized samples were characterized by thermal analysis, X-ray powder diffraction, infrared spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The results show that CoAl2O4 spinel is the only crystalline phase with a size of 10-30 nm in the temperature range 500-1000 degrees C. The temperature dependence of the distribution of Al3+ and Co2+ ions in the octahedral and tetrahedral sites in nanocrystals was investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). It is observed that the inversion parameter decreases with increasing annealing temperature. Analysis of the absorption properties indicates that Co2+ ions are located in the tetrahedral sites as well as in the octahedral sites in the CoAl2O4 nanocrystals. The origin of the green color (300-500 nm absorption band) should be due to the octahedrally coordinated Co2+ ions. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
