The band gap energy of the mixed metal ZnSeO3 is 3.228 eV. Electrical conductivity of the synthesized nano ZnSeO3 was studied by measuring change in conductance with temperature. The dependence of conductivity of metal selenite films in air ambience. The conductivity of the film goes on increasing with increase in temperature, indicating negative temperature coefficient (NTC) of resistance. This shows the semiconducting nature of the materials [Ref: SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF MIXED METAL OXIDES (Chapter-2)] Section-B Synthesis and Characterization of Metal Selenite (BSeO3, B= Zn, Pb, Mg and Cu) as Photocatalyst.
Thank you very much for your reply. Can you specifically tell me the authorship and publication details of the mentioned reference in your answer please? That would be very helpful for me.
