Based on spin-polarized density functional theory we studied the electronic structures, magnetic and optical properties of Ni-doped ZnO nanowires. The magnetic results show that three magnetic coupling states are present: ferromagnetic (FM), antiferromagnetic (AFM), and paramagnetic (PM) states for the six kinds of Ni-doped configurations. The calculated energy results indicate that antiferromagnetic coupling is more stable when Ni atoms substitute for Zn atoms in the ZnO nanowires on the outside surface along the [0001] direction. AFM coupling has a metallic nature. The FM results from the density of states show that the spin polarization phenomenon appears near the Fermi level and causes strong hybridization between Ni 3d and O 2p. Moreover, the magnetic moments mainly originate from the unpaired electrons of the Ni 3d orbitals and the electrons of the O 2p orbitals contribute a little to the magnetic moments. The coupling of FM has a half-metal nature. In addition, the optical properties indicate that the absorption peaks show a significant red shift and od emission in the far UV band while a blue shift is apparent for the near UV band (380 nm). These results indicate that the Ni-doped ZnO nanowires are promising magneto-optical electronic materials and they can be used for nanoscale spintronics device materials.
