Hydrothermal Synthesis and Properties of Diluted Magnetic Semiconductor Zn1-xMnxO Nanowires

چکیده
We report the synthesis of oriented single crystalline Mn doped ZnO nanowires through a hydrothermal method. Structural characterizations using X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy revealed that the Mn was doped into the lattice structure, forming solid solution. The Mn doped ZnO nanowires possess wurtzite structure with a c-axis growth orientation. The physical properties of the nanowires were investigated. Mn doped ZnO nanowires were found to be ferromagnetic with Curie temperature of about 30 K. A deep level emission band at about 566 nm was observed at room temperature.

Synthesis and magnetic properties of Mn doped ZnO nanowires
Mn doped ZnO nanowires have been synthesized using a simple autocombustion method. The as-synthesized Mn doped ZnO nanowires were characterized by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. An increase in the hexagonal lattice parameters of ZnO is observed on increasing the Mn concentration. Optical absorption studies show an increment in the band gap with increasing Mn content, an...
متن کاملStructure and magnetic properties of Mn-doped ZnO thin films
We report the structure and magnetic properties of Zn1–xMnxO thin fi lms grown on Si(001) substrates by pulsed laser deposition. Structure and phase evolution with Mn doping has been studied using x-ray diffraction, electron diffraction, and high-resolution electron microscopy. The undoped and 1% Mn-doped ZnO fi lms are completely (001) oriented, and further Mn doping deteriorates the (001) ori...
متن کاملTransition-metal doped zinc oxide nanowires.
The introduction of impurity atoms into semiconducting materials is the primary method for controlling the properties of the semiconductor, such as band gap or electrical conductivity. This practice is routinely performed with bulk semiconductors and, more recently, has been extended to nanoscale semiconductors as well. In particular, II–VI and III–V semiconductors that have been doped with tra...
متن کاملInfluences of Co2+ & Er3+ Co-doping on the Structural and Physical Properties of ZnO Nanocrystals Synthesized by Hydrothermal Route
Co2+ & Er3+ co-doped ZnO nanocrystals were synthesized by the hydrothermal method at 180°C and pH= 12 for 48 h. Powder XRD patterns indicate that the Zn1-2xErxCoxO crystals (0.00<x≤0.035) are isostructural with ZnO. The cell parameters increase for Er3+ and Co2+ upon increasing the dopant content (x). SEM images show that doping of Er3+ and Co2+ into the sites of Zn2+ does not change the morpho...
