Abstract

Spherical Zinc sulphide nanoparticles with good photoluminescence have been successfully fabricated using a simple chemical precipitation method doped with Mn2+ at low temperature. An emission peak at around 590nm confirms the presence of Mn2+. TEM picture reveals the formation of spherical nano particles. This low cost fabrication process for spherical Zinc sulphide nanoparticles with good photoluminescence can be applied to optoelectronic devices.
