In this thesis, the seed layer of nickel oxide (NiO) nanoparticles (NPs) was
fabricated and deposited by spray pyrolysis process on glass substrates. The
solution of seed layer extract was deposited on the glass substrate twice at an
angle of 90° for 5 seconds at a distance of 20 cm, and the biosynthesized sample
was prepared using a leaf extract from a fresh Leek leaf. These seed layers grow
in NiO NPs solutions at different pH values and concentrations for 4 hours.
The two primary green growth solutions differed in their pH and nickel
concentration ratios for cultivating the seed layer of NiO NPs using the green
method. The effects of different pH ratios and NiO nanoparticle concentrations
on average size, shape, distribution, crystal structure, functional groups, optical
properties, chemical composition, and energy band gap have been investigated in
detail for the first time using the green synthesis method via spray pyrolysis.
Numerous characterization methods, including Fourier transform infrared
spectroscopy (FTIR), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM),
energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), UV-visible spectroscopy, and
high-resolution X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques have been employed to
examine the structures and quality of the NiO nanoparticles thin films.
A viable option for the green production of NiO NPs is the use of UV-
visible spectroscopy on leaf extracts from fresh leek. Two separate absorption
peaks at 303 and 330 nm were obtained in the UV-visible spectra of the leaf
extract from fresh Leek leaves. Optimal concentrations (0.02 to 0.045) were
determined for the growth of green NiO NPs thin films from the utilized plant,
and the impact of growth solution pH (9 to 11.5) on the properties of the NiO NPs
thin films was assessed.
