| Abstract | Single-phase (Ca,V) co-doped ZnO nanoparticles (Zn
Ca
V
O, called hereinafter ZCVO) were synthesized
a modified sol-gel method. The hexagonal wurtzite symmetry of the ZnO phase nanostructure, belonging to the
6
space group, has been confirmed through X-ray diffraction examinations using Rietveld refinement. No segregated secondary phases or Ca or/and V-rich clusters were detected. The TEM images clearly show the presence of nanoparticles exhibiting a diverse range of spherical shapes. The effect of co-doping on the optical band gap and crystalline quality was also investigated
photoluminescence (PL), UV-vis, and Raman spectrometers. The
-
curve suggests a tenability of magnetic coupling which was discussed within the context of three competing magnetic phases using the 3D spin wave model and Curie-Weiss law. The lack of saturation of the
-
loop at 10 K suggests the presence of both paramagnetic (PM) and ferromagnetic (FM) phases in ZCVO NPs. The bound magnetic polaron (BMP) model provides a plausible explanation for the observed magnetic phase transition. Moreover, a Griffiths-like phase was observed for the first time, to our knowledge, in co-doped ZnO nanoparticles. This novelty may stem from the interplay between the antiferromagnetic (AFM) and FM interactions of the Ca and V ions, which are acquired by oxygen deficiency. |
