On the correlation between mechanical and electrical properties of pure and Ag doped ZnO nanoparticles

We present here structural, mechanical, and electrical properties at different values of temperatures (30–150 °C) for Zn1-xAgxO nanoparticles (NPs) with x = 0.00, 0.02, and 0.04. All NPs samples show wurtzite structure, tensile stress, and brittle character. Ag doping resulted in a slight increase in crystallite size,...
