Abstract

X-ray diffraction studies on bulk amount of chemically prepared nanocrystalline powder of Zn1−xTMxO (TM=Co, Mn, Fe, and Ni) show that the evolution of secondary phases (Co3O4, Mn3O4, Fe3O4, or NiO) along with the single phase Zn1−xTMxO strongly depend on growth temperature and doping concentration. The highest solubility limits of Co, Mn, Fe, and Ni in ZnO are 30%, 30%, 20%, and 3% (atomic weight), respectively. The magnetization measurement shows that the secondary phase formation reduces the magnetization of single phase Zn1−xTMxO, which may be the important clue that the secondary phase is not responsible for magnetism in Zn1−xTMxO.
