Abstract This study explored the superior photocatalytic performance of nanoscale zinc oxide-yttrium oxide (ZnO-Y 2 O 3 ) based composite over ZnO nanoparticles (NPs). We investigated this by following degradation efficiency methylene blue (MB). The sol–gel synthesized Y and NPs were characterized x-ray diffraction (XRD) scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques. spectral behaviour proposed UV–vis spectrophotometry, steady-state time-resolved photoluminescence (PL) measurements, respectively. results indicated successful formation with desirable structural properties. MB solution was evaluated for different concentrations counterparts ZnO-Y composite. In particular, ZnO-5Y -based showed activity after 150 min UV irradiation, achieving 98.4% compared to 77% achieved pure ZnO. Although alone does not exhibit activity, its combination significantly enhances improvement attributed luminescence properties . By elucidating unique mechanism, materials can be enhanced. our study, photodegradation rate constant (k app from 0.009 −1 0.0242 demonstrated promising composite, opening up exciting possibilities further applications in environmental remediation other fields.
