Two different batches of Gallium (III) sulphide nanocrystals, (α-Ga2S3)1 and (α-Ga2S3)2 were synthesized at room temperature by the reaction of Gallium (III) chloride with sodium thiosulphate in water for 10 and 20 min respectively. The resultant nanoparticles were characterized by different spectroscopic techniques. TEM micrographs showed well-defined, close to hexagonal particles, and the lattice fringes in the HRTEM images confirmed their nanocrystalline nature. The sizes of (α-Ga2S3)1 and (α-Ga2S3)2 were 12 and 35 nm respectively with similar morphologies. Optical band gap energies (3.43 eV/3.41 eV) and photoluminescence peaks 635/641 nm (red shift) and 414/420 nm (blue shift) of the synthesized α-Ga2S3 nanocrystals suggest that they may be promising photocatalysts. Raman spectra for the α-Ga2S3, shows very sharp bands at 119, 135 and 148 cm-1 due to Ga-S2 scissoring.

ABSTRACTColloidal sol-gel is a common method used for the preparation of stable and homogeneous nanoparticulate sols. In this work, TiO2 and Er3+ doped-TiO2 sols (1, 2 and 3 mole % Er3+) have been prepared. The peptization time, viscosity and isoelectric point increase at higher Er3+ concentration indicating that erbium (III) delays the peptization process, increases the viscosity and adsorbs onto the surface of the TiO2 nanoparticles. When the sols of TiO2 are doped with Er3+ lower values of the band gap are obtained. After drying, in all cases, anatase was obtained as major phase although traces of brookite are also detected. The microstructure was observed by TEM and shows direct evidence that the xerogels are polycrystalline.
