Abstract
- ZnO nanoparticles doped with transition metal (Ag, Ni, Mn) were prepared by using co-precipitation method. Absorption spectra showed exciton peak for ZnO nanoparticles at 367 nm and for Ag, Ni, Mn doped ZnO nanoparticles at 328, 354 nm and 342 nm respectively. Photoluminescence dynamics showed shallow level-trap and deep-level emission where the intensity of deep-level trap increases with transition metal doping due to the oxygen deficiency. Nonlinear absorption measurements showed the two-photon absorption increasing with transition metal following the trend Ag > Ni > Mn when excited with 532 nm, 30 ps laser pulses. The transition metal doped and un-doped ZnO nanoparticles can be used as optical limiters.
