Retraction: “Study of electronic structure and magnetization correlations in hydrogenated and vacuum annealed Ni doped ZnO” [J. Appl. Phys. 109, 063907 (2011)]

Subsequent to publication of the above article,¹ it was discovered that the data involving the Ni 2p XPS spectra shown in the inset in Figure 4 appeared to have been manipulated, and as a consequence, the results presented should not be relied upon and may be scientifically unsound.

AIP Publishing LLC therefore retracts this article.
