Abstract
The diluted magnetic semiconductor (Cd, Mn)S has been incorporated into ordered wire-like pores of hexagonal mesoporous silica. X-ray and Raman spectra reveal the wurtzite structure of the incorporated material. Photoluminescence and photoluminescence excitation spectra of the (Cd, Mn)S-wire samples show clearly the optical transitions within the half-filled Mn 3d shell, typical for Mn incorporated in a II–VI host material. The blueshift of the absorption edge of (Cd, Mn)S-wire samples compared to reference crystalline and powder samples of the same Mn content is due to quantum confinement in the nanowires.
