Zink oxide doped Mn nanocomposites were synthesized by simple sol-gel method at low temperature by using combination of aquadest with methanol as the solvent and ethylene glycol as the additive. Zink acetate dehydrate and manganese chloride tetrahydrate were used as the precursors. Composition dopants were 1,3,5,and 7%. The crystals were formed by drying at 110°C for 1 hour, after which they were heated at ± 500°C for 2 hours. The as-prepared ZnO/Mn nanocomposites were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and UV Diffuse Reflectance Spectrometer (UVDRS). The XRD patterns of the ZnO nanocrystals showed that they are mostly hexagonal wurtzite with specific peaks at 2θ = 31, 34, 36, 47, 56, 63, 66 dan 69. The sizes of the ZnO doped Mn particles produced with 1%, 3%, 5% and 7% were18-95; 17-87; 18-96 19-98 nm, respectively. UVDRS analysis showed that the band gap of the ZnO were 2,60; 2,90; 2,99 dan 3,01 eV for 1%, 3%, 5% and 7% Mn respectively. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
