Zn[Formula: see text]Ni[Formula: see text]Te semiconductor nanocrystals in transparent glass for optoelectronic device applications.

ABSTRACT: Doping glass with semiconductors, particularly with nanostructured semiconductors, has attracted attention due to the large optical absorption cross-sections of the latter. Based on this property, Ni[Formula: see text] (5 wt%) doped phosphate glass and Zn[Formula: see text]Ni[Formula: see text]Te (x = 0.5, 1.0, 5.0 and 10.0 wt% of Ni[Formula: see text]) nanocrystals (NCs) doped phosphate glasses (GCs) were prepared by fusion method and subsequent heat treatment. Influence of Ni[Formula: see text] on structural, thermo-optical and third-order nonlinear optical properties have been analysed through various spectroscopic characterizations. The XRD pattern of the glass (G) exhibits the amorphous nature of the host material while GCs exhibit not only amorphous halo but also the presence of quan
