Abstract

Pure zinc sulphide (ZnS) and Yttrium(Y) doped ZnS nanoparticles (5 and 10 wt%) have been synthesized via low cost chemical co-precipitation method. SEM, XRD and Photoluminescence spectroscopy have been employed to study structural and optical properties of the as prepared nanoparticles. Average crystallite size calculated from XRD is found to be 2–3 nm. Increase in Y doping concentration causes increase in crystallinity of the lattice and reduction in defects. Photoluminescence peak is observed at 361 nm which red shifts to 367 nm with incorporation of yttrium ions. PL intensity is quenched with increase in doping concentration.
