Chemo-synthesis and Characterizations of Zn Doped CoS Thin Films

The knowledge of physical properties of different materials for their possible applications in the daily life has always been a prime field of interest of the human civilization. The use of semiconductors has enhanced the quality of electronic devices and also reduced their cost and size. One possible alternative approach to improving electronics beyond what can be achieved by miniaturization is to incorporate the detection and manipulation of electron spin (spintronics). An emblematic method has been proposed to synthesize a zinc doped cobalt sulfide semiconductor to modify a conventional semiconductor by introducing a traces of magnetic transition metal to induce magnetic properties while retaining the semiconducting behaviour.
