Abstract
In the present study, the effects of Ni-doping on the structural properties of Fe2O3 samples prepared by a wet chemical method were investigated by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), differential thermal analysis (DTA), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques. XRD and FTIR results supported the formation of the Fe2O3 structure for each sample. Until 4at.%Ni-doping, no new phase formation was observed, and for this sample, the formation of the secondary phase of NiO was detected. The crystal structure-related parameters and morphology were affected by Ni content. Briefly, Ni may be used to control some properties of the Fe2O3 structure.

XRD ve FTIR sonuçları her bir numune için Fe2O3 yapının oluşumunu destekledi. 4at.%Ni katkısına kadar yeni bir faz oluşumu gözlenmedi ve bu numune için NiO ikincil fazının oluşumu tespit edildi. Kristal yapı ilişkili parametreler ve morfoloji, Ni içeriğinden etkilendi. Özetle Ni, Fe2O3 yapının bazı özelliklerini kontrol etmek için kullanılabilir.
