Synthesis of RGO/NiO nanocomposites adopting a green approach and its photocatalytic and antibacterial properties

An environment-friendly approach for the synthesis of reduced graphene oxide/nickel oxide nanocomposites (RGO/NiO NCs) was done in a microwave via in-situ co-precipitation and hydrothermal mode. A non-toxic aqueous phytoextract was used as a reducing cum stabilizing agent. X-ray diffraction, Raman spectra, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis confirmed the chemical structure of the NCs. The morphological studies were investigated by...
