We are the first to report Bi-Co co-doped zinc oxide nanowires (ZnO NWs) to investigate theoretically and experimentally the alignment of relative spin and the location of Bi3+ and Co2+ as the primary cause of magnetism. In the present study, we carefully performed theoretical and experimental studi...
