Well-dispersed (Gd, Al)-codoped ZnO (Zn0.96-xGdxAl0.04O) nanoparticles (NPs) with different Gd content (x = 0-0.04) were synthesized by low temperature hydrothermal method and their structural, optical, and magnetic properties were investigated. All the as-prepared Zn0.96-xGdxAl0.04O NPs exhibit a hexagonal wurtzite structure with good crystal quality and small particle size (similar to 3 nm). With increasing Gd-doping content from 0 to 0.04, the band gap E-g of Zn0.96-xGdxAl0.04O NPs increases from 3.46 to 3.62 eV owing to the substitution of Gd ions at Zn sites. The presence of additional intrinsic defects Zn-interstitial (Zn-i) and/or O-vacancy (VO) induced by Gd-doping results in the enhanced PL emission and increased PL lifetime. As compared with Al-doped ZnO, the room temperature ferromagnetic behavior of (Gd, Al)-codoped ZnO system is enhanced remarkably, which is explained based on the O-vacancy mediated exchange interactions between Gd and Al ions.
