Abstract
Cd and Cu co-doped ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized by Polyol method and subsequently have been characterized by their structure, optical and photoluminescence studies. XRD and PSA results revealed the formation of Cd and Cu co-doped ZnO nanoparticles with an average crystallite size of 50 nm and average particle size of 246 nm. From Zeta Potential measurements the Zeta Potential was found to be − 29.2 eV indicating the stability of prepared nanoparticles. From Uv-Vis studies, it is found that the absorption of undoped ZnO is less compared with Cd and Cu co-doped ZnO and the absorbance increases with increase in dopant concentration. Photoluminescence studies revealed that the samples are with high structural and optical quality.
