“…2 ZnS-based pure, doped, and composite detectors and scintillators continue to be widely explored. 3,4 Doping ZnS with various activators like Al, Ag, Cu, and Mn is particularly interesting because of features like high-intensity broad emissions in multiple colours, sensitivity towards various types of radiations, and relatively simple growth and synthesis procedures. 5–8 As such, bulk and nanoparticle-sized ZnS samples doped with manganese (Mn) are well-examined by researchers due to their various luminescence features in the visible regime.…”
