Defect-Mediated Electronic Structure Engineering of Green-Synthesized ZnO Nanoparticles Using Citrus sinensis Peel Extract for Enhanced Photocatalytic Degradation of Reactive Red 120

Abstract Zinc oxide (ZnO) is a promising wide-bandgap semiconductor for photocatalytic applications, but its large bandgap limits solar light utilization. In this work, ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized via a green route using Citrus sinensis peel extract as a phytochemical-medi...
