In this report we present a systematic structural and magnetic analysis of Co-doped ZnO nanoparticles prepared via a microwave-assisted hydrothermal route. The structural data confirm the incorporation of Co ions into the wurtzite ZnO lattice and a Co concentration mainly near/at the surface of the nanoparticles. This Co spatial distribution is set to passivate the surface of the ZnO nanoparticles, inhibiting the nanoparticle growth and suppressing the observation of a ferromagnetic phase. Based on experimental and theoretical results we propose a kinetic-thermodynamic model for the processes of nucleation and growth of the Co-doped ZnO nanoparticles, and attribute the observed ferromagnetic order to a ferromagnetism associated with specific defects and adsorbed elements at the surface of the nanoparticle. Our findings give valuable contribution to the understanding of both the doping process at the nanoscale and the nature of the magnetic properties of the Co-doped ZnO system.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
