Abstract

The present work objects to fabricate of polyvinyl-alcohol(PVA)-iron oxide(Fe2O3)- silicon carbide(SiC) nanostructures as a promising nanomaterials to utilize in the optical and electronics nanodevices like transistors, solar cell, photovoltaic cell, sensors and other fields. Structure, optical and electrical properties for PVA/Fe2O3/SiC nanocomposites were studied. Results indicated to the absorbance(A) rises about 92% at λ = 400 nm. The energy band gap(Eg) for PVA reduced from 5 eV to 3 eV as the content of Fe2O3/SiC nanostructures reached (6 wt%), this performance lead to made the PVA/Fe2O3/SiC nanocomposites suitable for many optics and electronics approaches. The optical parameters: absorption coefficient(α), refractive index(n), extinction coefficient(k), real(ε1) and imaginary(ε2) parts of dielectric constants and optical conductivity(σop) for PVA enhanced about 92%, 43.3%, 92%, 67.9%, 95.4%, 95.4% respectively, with adding of the Fe2O3/SiC nanostructures(6.4 wt%) at wavelength(λ = 400 nm), this performance makes the PVA/Fe2O3/SiC nanocomposites can be considered as excellent optical nanomaterials for electronic and optical fields. The results of the dielectric properties illustrated the dielectric constant(ε’) and AC electrical conductivity(σAC) enhanced about 43.2% and 62.2% with an increase in the Fe2O3/SiC nanostructures content to 6 wt% at (f = 100 Hz), this performance make it can be considered as a key to employ in the energy storage applications. Finally, the achieved results showed the PVA/Fe2O3/SiC nanocomposites are promising nanomaterials for optical and electronics applications with excellent physical properties compared of other nanosystems.
