Pristine and manganese doped Zinc Oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles are synthesized through chemical co-precipitation method beneficially at room temperature without any capping agent. After the finishing point of synthesis the powders are cautiously subjected to various characterizations such as X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with Energy-Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and observed the influence of Mn+2 ions on structural and morphological properties of Zinc Oxide nanostructures. XRD information shows that both samples obtain hexagonal wurtzite crystal structure, also found nonappearance of secondary phase, which indicates the complete dissolution of dopant into ZnO host lattice. The accurate size of crystallites is evaluated through TEM descriptions which are just about corroborated through the XRD data. The morphology of the samples is found through Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) illustrations and Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) spectrum reveals that no impurities are in existence other than manganese.
