Investigation of Structural, Magnetic, and Optical Properties of ZnO Codoped with Co and Cd

Co and Cd have been codoped in ZnO using a simple solid state reaction technique to synthesize dilute magnetic oxide semiconductors of composition Zn0.9Co0.1−xCdxO (x = 0.0-0.1 with an increment of 0.02). Hexagonal wurtzite structure has been obtained for samples up to x = 0.06, using X-ray diffract...
