The X-ray diffraction method was used to provide the structural analysis. It was observed that all Ni/Cu co-doped ZnO nanorods are single phases. The Scanning Electron Microscope and Electron Dispersive Spectroscopy were employed to monitor the surface morphology, shapes, size, and elemental compositions of the Ni/Cu co-doped ZnO nanorods. The Fourier Transform Infrared studies were performed and detailed. The UV-Spectrophotometer was used to obtain the optical properties of the nanorods. The energy band gaps of Ni/Cu-doped ZnO nanorods were calculated and their effects on optical properties were discussed. Five different models were used to calculate the refractive index. Multi-doped (Ni and Cu) ZnO nanorods were successfully produced using the hydrothermal method and their structural, band gap and refractive indexes were discussed for optoelectronic and sensor applications.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessMagnetic-PropertiesRefractive-IndexEnergy-GapFabricationSapphireHydrogenThe effects of Ni/Cu co-doped ZnO nanorods: Structural and optoelectronic studyArticle10.1007/s10854-022-08884-5332620740207552-s2.0-85136602142Q2WOS:000843434300001Q2
