Abstract
The effect of laser fluence on the optical, structural and morphological properties of PbI2 nanoparticles NPs synthesized by pulsed laser ablation in ethanol was studied. The direct optical energy gap of PbI2 NPs prepared at various laser fluences was in the range of (3–3.3 eV) at room temperature. Three absorption peaks related to surface plasmon resonance at 337, 435 and 507 nm are observed. XRD results show that all the grown PbI2 NPs are polycrystalline in nature and the formation of hexagonal structure 2H-polytype was observed at laser fluence of 3.6 J/cm2. The surface morphology of PbI2 NPs investigated by SEM revealed formation of hexagonal, platelet-like and spherical NPs morphologies. TEM images showed formation of spherical particles with size varied from 10 to 75 nm depending on the laser fluence. PL measurement shows emission of broad peak centered at 350 nm and increasing the laser fluence results in red shift. The Raman spectra of PbI2 NPs revealed existence of five vibration modes situated at 74, 96,106, 169 and 213 per cm. FT-IR investigation showed a broad band at 3383 per cm indexed to symmetric stretching vibration of Pb–I clusters and band at 725 per cm related to bending mode of O–H.
