Investigation of Cd1−Co S diluted magnetic semiconductor thin films fabricated by chemical bath deposition method

Exploring the Mn doped BaTe alloy for spintronics and energy harvesting applications

“…In modern decades, the dilute magnetic semiconductors (DMS) have garnered intense attention of researchers in computational and experimental studies owing to their potential usage in photodetectors, short wavelength lasers, photovoltaic and spintronics devices [1,2] because of their magneto-optical and electronic properties [3][4][5]. DMSs are relied on II-IV, III-V, IV-VI and II-VI alloys [6][7][8][9] that can be achieved by incorporation of magnetic cations (V, Co, Mn, Ni and Fe) in non-magnetic host cations for inducing localized magnetic moments [10,11]. This semiconducting property of DMS materials makes them applicable in various advanced technologies i.e., optoelectronics, opto-spintronics, and thermoelectrics [1,2].…”

In Situ Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance (LSPR) Spectroscopy to Investigate Kinetics of Chemical Bath Deposition of CdS Thin Films

“…Over the last few decades liquid phase chemical bath deposition (CBD) has become an important technique to deposit metal, semiconductor, and dielectric thin films over large areas due to its low cost and scalability. It has been used for photovoltaic devices, 1−5 infrared hollow wave guides, 6 magnetic semiconductor devices, 7 supercapacitors, 8 photocatalysis, 9 optoelectronic devices, 10 cholesterol sensing, 11 and to manufacture nanoparticles. 12 However, understanding the CBD process has primarily been through a postdeposition analysis of film microstructure resulting from varying reaction parameters, such as temperature, solution concentration, pH, and fluid flow.…”

Synthesis and characterization of Mn-doped ZnO diluted magnetic semiconductors

“…Most of diluted magnetic semiconducting studies concentrated on metal oxides, chalcogenide semiconductors and superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles [3][4][5][6]. The magnetic properties of these materials are strongly depending on the host material and sample preparation conditions.…”
