Abstract: Crystalline Zn1-xSixO (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.156) nanoparticles reveal decreasing particle size with increasing Si content and a undistorted wurtzite form until x = 0.062 beyond which local deformation is observed maintaining the parent structure. There is a sharp increment in bandgap with nominal Si-doping and then almost saturates onwards. Moreover thermal annealing demonstrate the increase bandgap and decreasing lattice parameters. The details of samples synthesis and characterization is presented in the present manuscript. Copyright © 2017 American Scientific Publishers All rights reserved.
