Abstract

The Mn doped ZnO thin films were deposited on glass substrates by dip coating method. Characterization techniques of XRD, SEM, UV-visible spectra measurements and VSM were performed to investigate the structural, optical and magnetic properties. ZnO thin films were prepared with three different growth time of 3, 4 and 5 hours at 100°C. Manganese (Mn) was doped with the prepared ZnO thin film in three different growth layer concentrations (0.01,0.02 and 0.03mol). In Mn doped ZnO, as the concentration of manganese increases, the ferromagnetic behavior decreases.
