Synthesis and characterization of nano ZnS doped with Mn

Abstract

Nanocrystalline samples of Zn 1-x Mn x S (x = 0.0, 0.02, 0.04) were synthesized by chemical precipitation method and characterized for magnetism. EPR studies showed an evidence of ferromagnetism around room temperature. Hysterisis from vibrating sample magnetometer supports the observation.

Paramagnetic nature of Mn doped ZnS nano particles in opto electronic device application

“…9a the hysteresis loop of undoped ZnS shows the diamagnetic behavior with some distortion. Antiferromagnetic with diamagnetic, Paramagnetic and Room temperature Ferromagnetic behavior of Mn doped ZnS nano particles have been reported [4,33,34]. It is reported that 3 and 5 % Mn doped hysteresis loop accommodates the shape of paramagnetic material.…”

Synthesis and characterization of Zn1−XCuXS and Zn1−XNiXS nanoparticles and their applications as photocatalyst in Congo red degradation

“…The results are summarized in Table 1. The results indicate that the doping of ZnS nanoparticles with nickel and copper ions was carried out at the desired mole fractions [22]. Fig.…”

Tailoring magnetic and photoluminescence properties in ZnS/ZnO core/shell nanostructures through Cr doping

“…Ferromagnetism (FM) in undoped sphalerite ZnS due to sulphur vacancies have been reported [3]. FM in ZnS with Curie temperature above room temperature in Co or Fe doped ZnS [4,5] nanoparticles (NPs); half metallic ferromagnetism in Cu doped ZnS [6,7]; possibility of long range FM ordering in ZnS:N through interaction of p electrons of N and S atoms [8] have been reported. Though Cr is a promising transition metal that can induce FM and luminescence simultaneously, studies on Cr doped ZnS are very few.…”
