Unveiling Semiconductor Nanostructured Based Holmium-Doped ZnO: Structural, Luminescent and Room Temperature Ferromagnetic Properties

This research work describes the synthesis of ZnO nanostructures doped with Ho<sup>3+</sup> ions using a conventional sol–gel synthesis method. The nanostructured produced exhibited a wurtzite hexagonal structure in both ZnO and ZnO:Ho<sup>3+</sup> (0.25, 0.5, 0.75 mol%) samp...
