Abstract

In this study we have reported the effect of Ni-doping on optical and magnetic properties of ZnS nanorods. The diameter and length of low temperature solvothermally synthesized, high quality nanorods are 10 and 50–300 nm respectively as revealed from transmission electron microscopy. From X-ray diffraction, the structure of Ni-doped nanorods was observed as wurtzite with lattice parameters, a = 3.83 and c = 6.26. The band gap of the undoped and doped samples was found to be blue shifted as compared to the bulk counterpart when analyzed with UV–visible spectroscopy. Quenching in photoluminescence spectra was observed in case of Ni-doped nanorods as compared to undoped counterpart. The magnetization as analyzed from vibrating sample magnetometer was found to increase with 1 and 5 % Ni-doping concentration, and decrease with further increase in Ni-doping concentration, i.e., with 10 % Ni-doping.
