Size tunable transition metal (Mn, Ni) doped ZnO nanocrystals have been synthesized through a soft chemical route. These nanocrystals self-aggregated themselves in a highly mesoporous spherical superstructure of broad size distribution. The formation of nanocrystals and porous spherical superstructu...
