"Material perovskite nanopartikel LaFe1-xTixO3 ( x = 0, 0.025, 0.050, 0.075, 0.100) telah berhasil disintesis menggunakan metode sol gel yang ditambahkan material silika berpori SBA-15. Uji karakterisasi yang dilakukan antara lain XRD, XRF, FTIR, Raman, UV-VIS, BET, dan RLC Meter. Hasil dari karakterisasi sifat struktur sampel menunjukkan fase tunggal, struktur kristal ortorombik, dan space group Pnma (62). Ukuran kristal pada Ti ( x = 0, 0.025, 0.050, 0.075, dan 0.100) masing-masing adalah 44.92, 23.21, 22.09, 21.14, 21.13 nm. Ukuran kristal menurun seiring dengan penambahan substitusi Ti. Nilai bond distance yang mengalami peningkatan akibat adanya panambahan substitusi Ti di situs Fe telah dikonfirmasi oleh hasil uji FTIR dan Raman. Persentase weight experimental pada hasil uji XRF tidak memberikan informasi mengenai elemen lainnya yang mengindikasikan bahwa tidak terdapat impuritas pada sampel. Nilai rasio atomik eksperimen menunjukkan unsur Fe mengalami penurunan seiring dengan peningkatan konsentrasi Ti menunjukkan bahwa ion Ti telah berhasil tersubstitusi di situs Fe. Uji BET menunjukkan peningkatan nilai luas permukaan, ukuran pori, dan volume pori seiring dengan peningkatan konsentrasi Ti. Luas permukaan pada Ti (( x = 0, 0.025, 0.050, 0.075, dan 0.100) masing-masing adalah 3.36, 3.62, 4.40, 4.49, dan 9.07 m2/g. Selain penambahan konsentrasi Ti, peningkatan luas permukaan juga cenderung dipengaruhi oleh material silika berpori SBA-15. Ukuran pori setiap sampel berada di rentang 2-16 nm. Kurva isotherm menunjukkan seluruh sampel dikategorikan tipe IV dengan loop histeresis tipe H3. Tipe H3 mewakili material pori bentuk celah lebar. Energi band gap pada Ti ( x = 0, 0.025, 0.050, 0.075, dan 0.100) masing-masing adalah 2.26, 2.14, 2.13, 2.12, dan 2.10 eV. Hasil uji UV-Vis menunjukkan penurunan nilai energi band gap seiring dengan peningkatan substitusi Ti. Indikator suatu material dapat diaplikasikan sebagai kandidat fotokatalitik adalah memiliki luas permukaan dan ukuran pori yang tinggi, serta energi energi.
LaFe1xTixO3 (x = 0, 0.025, 0.050, 0.075, and 0.100) nanoparticles were prepared using the sol-gel method with the addition of porous silica material SBA-15. Characterization using by XRD, XRF, FTIR, Raman, UV-VIS, BET, and RLC Meter. The results of the characterization of the structure properties of the sample showed a single phase, orthorhombic crystal structure, and Pnma space group (62). The crystallite sizes of Ti (x = 0.025, 0.050, 0.075, and 0.100) were 44.92, 23.21, 22.09, 21.14, 21.13 nm, respectively. The crystallite sizes decreases with the addition of Ti substitution. The bond distance value which has increased due to the addition of Ti substitution at the Fe site has been confirmed by the results of the FTIR and Raman analysis. The percentage of experimental weight on the XRF analysis does not provide information about other elements which indicate that there are no impurities in the sample. The value of the atomic ratio of the experiment showed that Fe decreased with increasing Ti concentration, indicating that Ti ions had been successfully substituted at the Fe site. BET analysis showed an increase in the value of surface area, pore size, and pore volume along with the increase in Ti concentration. The surface area of ââTi (x = 0, 0.025, 0.050, 0.075, and 0.100) are 3.36, 3.62, 4.40, 4.49, and 9.07 2/g, respectively. In addition to the addition of Ti concentration, the increase in surface area also tends to be influenced by the porous silica material SBA-15. The pore size of each sample is in the range of 2-16 nm. The isotherm curve shows that all samples are categorized as type IV with a hysteresis loop of type H3. Type H3 represents a wide gap pore material. Band gap energy at Ti (x = 0 , 0.025, 0.050, 0.075, and 0.100) are 2.26, 2.14, 2.13, 2.12, and 2.10 eV, respectively. UV-VIS analysis show a decrease in the band gap energy value along with the increase in Ti substitution. An indicator of a material can be applied as a candidate photocatalytic is having a high surface area and pore size, as well as band gap energy energy which is in the visible light range (2-2.8 eV). The results of the study reached 2 indicators including pore size and band gap energy. However, the increase in surface area is still relatively low so further research needs to be done. "
