Summary: Nanostructured Zn1-xMgxO (x = 0-0.04) thin films were prepared on a glass substrate using sol-gel dip coating. The films exhibited a hexagonal wurtzite structure with decreasing diffraction peak intensity and changing crystallite size as Mg doping concentration increased. Optical analysis showed an increase in transmittance and a decrease in optical bandgap energy with Mg doping. Photoluminescence spectra revealed a quenching of near band edge emission and red emission for Zn0.96Mg0.04O film. The deposits emitted nearly white light.

Summary: This study focuses on manganese doped CdS thin films synthesized by chemical bath deposition. The incorporation of Mn2+ cations in CdS was found to influence the crystalline structure, morphology, and optoelectronic properties. Doped thin films exhibited a uniform hexagonal structure, changed growth orientation, and showed scale-like and needle-like morphologies. The bandgap and rectification speed of Schottky diodes were modified by introducing manganese. This study suggests the potential for affordable high-speed optoelectronic devices.
