Abstract

The physical and chemical properties of metal oxides give them a very significant role in various industries. Many of these oxides considered as the raw materials for many technological applications, from paints, mirrors, ceramics and steel. Most of these oxides fall within the range of semiconductors; they are thus used in the manufacture of electronic devices such as diodes, transistors, integrated circuits and solar cells. Some of oxides when they get mixed together they produce a material with enhanced optical properties. Thus, this research aims to form a mixture from Ferrous oxide and Magnesium oxide to produce a material with better optical properties that can be used in various applications. One sample of magnesium oxide MgO, One sample of ferrous oxide FeO and 4 samples of a mixture of magnesium oxide and ferrous oxide Fe_xMg_(1-x)O₂ were prepared using the sol-gel method. Then these samples were tested in a UV-Vis spectrometer, and then the optical properties (Absorption - Reflection - Transmittance - Absorption coefficient - Extinction coefficient - Energy gap) were found as functions of wavelength. The results showed that there is an improvement in the absorption of the mixture samples to ultraviolet radiations compared to the absorption of the pure ferrous oxide, as it have a very high absorption (0.99au), a low transmittance (0.11%), and a negative value of reflection (-0.051%). The mixture samples are closer to the ideal semiconductor energy gap compared to the pure iron oxide energy gap. Therefore, the material Fe_xMg_(1-x)O₂ can be used as a semiconductor material used in the electronics industry, rather, it can be used as a filter for ultraviolet rays due to its high absorption of it.
