Abstract

The present work was focused on producing sustainable Nd2O3 nanoparticles for inhibiting human breast cancer cells. Novel synthesis route was described. Raman, PL, XRD, FTIR, XPS and TEM characterization was explored. Observed Raman Fg and Ag + Eg combination modes confirmed Nd2O3. PL emission bands around ∼352–392 nm (UV), ∼429–472 nm (blue), ∼580 nm (green) and ∼650 nm (red) further confirmed Nd2O3. Highest incubation period clearly exhibits (100) oriented strong XRD characteristic Nd2O3 peak. 413 and 630 cm−1 peaks represent IR characteristic metal–oxygen (Nd–O) vibrations. Nd3d peak shifted to higher binding energy upon increasing incubation period substantiate the presence of bigger particles due to rich Nd structure. 7 days incubation revealed agglomerated Nd2O3 particles (200 nm). 1 day incubated 500 (µg/ml) Nd2O3 dosage could be used as an effective biocompatibility material.
