Description

Highlights: • Successful synthesis of Zn1-xNixS nanoparticles of size 3–5 nm. • Band gap was found to decrease with increase in Ni doping. • Ni doped sample have higher saturations magnetization than ZnS. • Blocking temperature of all the samples is well above room temperature. • %MR was found to increase with Ni doping.
