The effect of annealing temperature on the dielectric and magnetic properties of (Co, Zn) co-doped SnO2 nanoparticles under air/oxygen (O-2) and argon (Ar) atmospheres at 600 A degrees C have been systematically investigated. A significant decrease is observed in dielectric constant and dielectric loss resulting from the incorporation of Co and Zn into the SnO2 lattice. Higher dielectric constant and loss was observed in the O-2 annealed sample. Moreover, the electrical conductivity of the (Co, Zn) co-doped SnO2 samples increased in comparison with that of pure SnO2 sample due to the increase of available charge carriers after replacement of Sn ions with Co and Zn ions. Room-temperature ferromagnetism (RTFM) was observed for both the O-2 and Ar annealed (Co, Zn) co-doped SnO2 samples. However, the remanent magnetization (Mr) varied drastically for different environmental annealing processes with Mr = 0.412 and 0.20 memu/g for the O-2 and Ar-annealed samples, respectively. The results show that the enhanced dielectric and magnetic properties of (Co, Zn) co-doped SnO2 sample is strongly correlated with the increase in O-2 vacancies. These findings not only demonstrate that (Co, Zn) co-doped SnO2 samples show tunable RTFM, but also suggests that RTFM can be influenced by introduction of O-2 vacancies during O-2 annealing.

The Effect of Transition Metals Co-Doped ZnO Nanotubes Based-Diluted Magnetic Semiconductor for Spintronic Applications

Muhammad Adil Mahmood, Rajwali Khan, Sattam Al Otaibi, Khaled Althubeiti, Sherzod Shukhratovich Abdullaev, Nasir Rahman, Mohammad Sohail, Shahid Iqbal

Summary: The impact of Co and Gd on the structural, magnetic, and dielectric properties of ZnO nanotubes synthesized by co-precipitation is studied. The results show that incorporating Co and Gd into ZnO decreases crystallinity while maintaining optimum orientation. Co and Gd doping does not affect the morphology of the nanotubes. Decreasing the frequency and concentration of Gd co-dopant leads to an increase in dielectric constant and loss values. The presence of doping results in an inversely proportional relationship between dielectric constant and ac electrical conductivity response. Co and Gd co-doped ZnO nanotubes exhibit ferromagnetic properties at 300K, with an increase in ferromagnetic response as Gd doping increases to 3% and a decrease with further Gd co-doping. Electrical conductivity of the same sample is superior to pure and low Gd doped ZnO, suggesting potential applications in spin-based electronics.
