Nanocrystalline ZnO doped lanthanide oxide: An efficient photocatalyst for the degradation of malachite green dye under visible light irradiation

Visible light induced semiconductor photocatalysis has received a great attention in recent years due to the contamination of water bodies. In the present study, we have reported the photo catalytic degradation of a toxic organic dye, malachite green using a ZnO doped Dy2O3 photo catalyst under visi...
