Abstract

We measured the Raman spectra of ZnO nanoparticles (ZnO‐NPs), as well as transition‐metal‐doped (5% Mn(II), Fe(II) or Co(II)) ZnO nanoparticles, with an average size of 9 nm. A typical Raman peak at 436 cm^−1^ is observed in the ZnO‐NPs, whereas Zn~1−x~Mn~x~O, Zn~1−x~Fe~x~O and Zn~1−x~Co~x~O presented characteristic peaks at 661, 665 and 675 cm^−1^, respectively. These peaks can be related to the formation of Mn~3~O~4~, Fe~3~O~4~ and Co~3~O~4~ species in the doped ZnO‐NPs. Moreover, these samples were analyzed at various laser powers. Here, we observed new vibrational modes (512, 571 and 528 cm^−1^), which are specific to Mn, Fe and Co dopants, respectively, and ZnO‐NPs did not reveal any additional modes. The new peaks were interpreted either as disorder activated phonon modes or as local vibrations of Mn‐, Fe‐ and Co‐related complexes in ZnO. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

## Abstract ZnO nanostructures have attracted great attention for possible applications in optoelectronic and spintronic devices. The electrical resistivity because of carriers can be improved by the introduction of Li ions, as Li is a possible dopant for achieving p‐type ZnO. We have carried out a

Micro-Raman spectra have been recorded on Ge doped optical fibers before and after 10 keV-X or c-ray irradiation up to doses of 1 MGy (X-ray) or 7.8 MGy (c-ray). Our data provide evidence that, at such dose levels, the glass matrix is not modified in a detectable way. We observed that varying the Ge
