It is confirmed by energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy （EDS）, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy （XPS） and Raman spectroscopy that Fe has been successfully doped into lattices of In2O3 nanowires. The EDS measurements reveal a large amount of oxygen vacancies existing in the Fe-doped In2O3 nanowires. The Fe dopant exists as a mixture of Fe2＋ and Fe3＋, as revealed by the XPS. The origin of room-temperature ferromagnetism in Fe-doped In2O3 nanowires is explained by the bound magnetic polaron model.展开更多
