Notes:
Using nitrate precursors, a novel microwave-assisted progress for the preparation ofnanocrystalline pure YFeO3 phase has been developed. Synthesis of perovskite YFeO3 hasbeen achieved with carbon to enhance microwave absorption, polyvinyl alcohol as inhibitorand urea as homogeneous precipitator. The precursor led to formation of phase pure YFeO3nanocrystalline (52-64 nm) after calcination. The obtained YFeO3 samples were characterizedby XRD analysis, N2 adsorption, FT-IR, SEM, TEM, UV-vis/DRS. The synthesis is a fast,simple and inexpensive process and such nanosized YFeO3 has a potential application inphotocatalysis under visible light irradiation due to its structure of perovskite-type andphoto-absorption property
