Zn1 – xMnxS alloy nanowires with composition (x = 0.0, 0.1 and 0.3) have been successfully synthesized by a simple thermal evaporation on the silicon substrate coated with a gold film of 2 nm thickness. X-ray powder diffraction measurements reveal that as synthesized products were hexagonal wurtzite structure. The as grown nanowires have been investigated by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Energy Dispersive Analysis of X-rays (EDAX) and photoluminescence studies. The results reveal that the as grown nanowires consist of Zn, Mn, and S material and diameter ranging from 70 - 150 nm with lengths up to several tens of micrometers. Photoluminescence studies on Zn1 – xMnxS exhibited peaks at 600 and 613 nm for x = 0.1 and 0.3 respectively.

ZnS nanoparticles Co-doped with Mn and Te (x = 0.05 and 0.10) have been synthesized for the first time by chemical co-precipitation method, thiophenol is used to passivate the surface of the particles. The as-prepared samples were amorphous in nature. Nanocrystallinity was induced after calcining the samples at 300oC/2hrs. The obtained nanoparticles were subjected to X-ray diffraction (XRD), Energy Dispersive Analysis of X-rays (EDAX), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), hotoluminescence (PL) and Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) studies. All the samples exhibited cubic structure and the particle size was found to be 3-5 nm. EDAX revealed that the compositions did not deviate much from the target compositions. The photoluminescence studies showed emission in the red region and the emission wavelength is varied with composition. The Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectra showed paramagnetic nature of the samples at room temperature. EPR and PL results were quite consistent with each other.
