“…As observed all doped films show band gap values lower than the pure ZnO film which can be attributed to stronger sp-d interaction between the band electrons and localized d electrons of Ni 2+ ions substituted Zn 2+ sites [51,52]. Also the different electronegativity of Ni(1.91 [53]) and Zn(1.65 [53]) play a role in decreasing the band gap energy through creating prolonged defect levels through which the valence band maximum goes upward, and conduction band minimum goes downward, consequently reducing the band gap [54]. This result match what is recorded by Ali et al [14] that there was a small red shift (∼0.07 eV) recorded at 6 wt% Ni doped ZnO films prepared by spray pyrolysis.…”
