Abstract

In this study, the estimated stress, strain, and crystallite sizes of different Mn-doped ZnO nanoparticles were calculated using the Williamson-Hall method and compared with the values obtained from the Debye-Scherrer formula. Moreover, defects, and magnetic properties of Mn-doped ZnO nanoparticles at different concentrations were investigated. The sol-gel method was used to synthesize nanoparticles. The X-ray diffraction and Rietveld analysis results confirm that the desired structure is formed and that no secondary phase is present up to an Mn concentration of x = 0.2. In and out of plane lattice parameters, cell volumes, bond length, atomic locality, and dislocation density (δ) were clarified. The grain size of the concentration-dependent samples was provided by scanning electron microscope. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra exhibited ultraviolet emission along with a broad band encompassing violet, blue, and red regions, attributed to defect-related and excitonic emissions. These emissions were notably influenced by synthesis conditions and doping elements and ratios. Electron spin resonance properties of the concentration-dependent samples were analyzed to figure out the g-factor through line widths of pike-to-pike (ΔHPP) of ESR spectra. Mn-doped ZnO nanoparticles exhibited ferromagnetism at room temperature.

浓度依赖性 Zn1-xMnxO 纳米粒子的结构、微观结构和 ESR 特性

本研究采用威廉森-霍尔法计算了不同掺锰氧化锌纳米粒子的估计应力、应变和晶粒尺寸，并与德拜-舍勒公式得出的数值进行了比较。此外，还研究了不同浓度的掺锰氧化锌纳米粒子的缺陷和磁性能。采用溶胶-凝胶法合成纳米粒子。X 射线衍射和里特维尔德分析结果证实，在锰浓度为 x = 0.2 的情况下，形成了理想的结构，并且不存在次生相。平面内和平面外的晶格参数、晶胞体积、键长、原子位置和位错密度（δ）均已明确。扫描电子显微镜提供了浓度依赖性样品的晶粒尺寸。光致发光（PL）光谱显示出紫外发射以及一个包含紫色、蓝色和红色区域的宽带，这归因于缺陷相关发射和激子发射。这些发射明显受到合成条件和掺杂元素及比例的影响。分析了浓度依赖性样品的电子自旋共振特性，并通过 ESR 光谱的梭对梭线宽（ΔHPP）找出了 g 因子。掺锰氧化锌纳米粒子在室温下具有铁磁性。

期刊介绍： Ceramics International covers the science of advanced ceramic materials. The journal encourages contributions that demonstrate how an understanding of the basic chemical and physical phenomena may direct materials design and stimulate ideas for new or improved processing techniques, in order to obtain materials with desired structural features and properties. Ceramics International covers oxide and non-oxide ceramics, functional glasses, glass ceramics, amorphous inorganic non-metallic materials (and their combinations with metal and organic materials), in the form of particulates, dense or porous bodies, thin/thick films and laminated, graded and composite structures. Process related topics such as ceramic-ceramic joints or joining ceramics with dissimilar materials, as well as surface finishing and conditioning are also covered. Besides traditional processing techniques, manufacturing routes of interest include innovative procedures benefiting from externally applied stresses, electromagnetic fields and energetic beams, as well as top-down and self-assembly nanotechnology approaches. In addition, the journal welcomes submissions on bio-inspired and bio-enabled materials designs, experimentally validated multi scale modelling and simulation for materials design, and the use of the most advanced chemical and physical characterization techniques of structure, properties and behaviour. Technologically relevant low-dimensional systems are a particular focus of Ceramics International. These include 0, 1 and 2-D nanomaterials (also covering CNTs, graphene and related materials, and diamond-like carbons), their nanocomposites, as well as nano-hybrids and hierarchical multifunctional nanostructures that might integrate molecular, biological and electronic components.
