Preparation of Fe Substituted ZnO Nanoparticles and Investigation of Their Magnetic Behaviors

Preparation of Fe Substituted ZnO Nanoparticles and Investigation of Their Magnetic Behaviors

Nano-powders of diluted magnetic semiconductor Zn1-xFexO (0.0≤ x ≤0.1) were prepared via the sol-gel auto-combustion method. Crystal structure and phase identification carried out by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) analysis. Mean crystallite size of the powders was estimated by Scherrer's formula. As M...
