Abstract
We report magnetic properties of transition metal (TM) doped ZnO nanoparticles and compare the doping effects of different transition metal ions into the ZnO matrix. Stoner–Wohlfarth model has been used to study the switching behavior of magnetic moments by observing energy diagram and hysteresis. Low magnetic anisotropy in Zn1-xMxO nanoparticles is observed where M=Fe, Co, Ni and x is the dopant amount. We have considered chemical precipitation technique for the preparation of Zn1-xMxO samples and have compared the reversal processes of magnetic moments with respect to time in the nanoparticles.
