TiO, ZnO, and their combination (TiO-ZnO) at different molar ratios and pH values (Ti-Zn A and B 3:1, 1:1, and 1:3) via the sol-gel method were characterized by SEM, XRD, UV-Vis, and FT-IR. Moreover, antibacterial tests of the nanoparticles were conducted against (), (), (), and (). The indirect bandgap of the Ti-Zn binary oxide synthesized in the basic process at molar ratios of 3:1, 1:1, and 1:3 exhibited a higher eV (3. Read More
