Abstract
<title>Abstract</title> <p>The pure and Fe doped ZnO nanoparticles with varying iron mole percentages of 3%, 4.5% and 6% were synthesized by using co-precipitation. Structural and morphological properties as well as electrochemical properties, serving as anode in Li-ion batteries, were studied. All samples have hexzagonal wurtzite ZnO crystal structure and a slightly shift from x-ray difraction patterns of Fe:ZnO samples have shown that Fe<sup>3+</sup> ions substituted by Zn<sup>2+</sup> ions. As the percentage of Fe mol increases from 3–4.5%, the size of the particles decreases, and as the percentage of Fe mol decreases from 4.5–6%, it also increases. The emission bands originated due to energy levels generated by ZnO intrinsic defects in all samples. In half cell configuration, 3% Fe:ZnO and 6 % Fe:ZnO anode exhibit rapid capacity fading. ZnO anode with Fe mol percentage of 4.5 % results a substantially enhances sepecific capacity during 50 cycle.</p>
