By self-combustion method with proper amount of urea addition, cubic and foamy structures of C12A7 were achieved at 950 {\deg}C and at 510 {\deg}C respectively. Pure C12A7 formation confirmed by P-XRD and growth mechanism of the cubes was also understood by SEM and FT-IR analysis. Further the band gap was measured 3.07 eV in case of 510 {\deg}C and 3.32 eV in case of 950 {\deg}C synthesized particles with the help of UV-Vis analysis. During PL single sharp peaks at 399 nm noticed which indicates less defective C12A7 at 950 {\deg}C, confirmed by XRD having more crystallinity and less strain. No trap state or radiative recombination observed in case of C12A7 synthesized at 950 {\deg}C sample. Conductivity from conductometry titration method was found to be 9.223 mS at 26.3 {\deg}C and 747.33 mS at 26.4 {\deg}C for 510 {\deg}C and 950 {\deg}C synthesized samples respectively.en-USNon-conventional porous 12CaO7Al2O3 transparent oxide semiconductor: a journey from foams to cubese-Printhttps://chemrxiv.org/engage/api-gateway/chemrxiv/assets/orp/resource/item/62caa6ad3be5f14634159f4a/original/design-of-cellular-solids-for-acoustic-noise-cancellation-a-multiphase-lattice-boltzmann-approach.pdfe-Print0123456789/355
