Abstract

Ni(OH)2 nanoparticles(NPs) with different morphologies (spherical, nanoplate etc.) are synthesized via hydrothermal route at 150 °C. Formation of the NPs confirmed by using X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The effect of hydrothermal treatment time and pH (of the precursor solution) on the morphology, shape and size of the Ni(OH)2 NPs are observed by Field emission scanning electron microscope. Then, the optical and dielectric properties (ɛ ~ 3.12 × 105 at 20 Hz and lowest band gap ~5.463 eV) are explained on the basis of the morphology, size, geometrical shapes, crystalline, amorphous nature and thermal stability of the synthesized NPs.
