Abstract

Polyvinlypyrrolidone (PVP) capped and magnetic transition metals (TM = Fe, Co and Cr) doped CuS quantum dots (Cu1-xTMxS; x = 0.02 & 0.04) were synthesized by low entropy facile chemical co-precipitation method. The structural, optical and magnetic characterizations of the synthesized QDs were done by using X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique, UV–Vis-NIR absorption spectroscopy, photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy and superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) respectively. The low field non-linearity and the presence of coercivity in the M−H loops indicate the presence low field magnetic (spin–spin) interactions between the doped cations.
