Despite its advantages, the application of ZnO is hampered by the lack of stable p-type doping. In this paper, the recent progress in this field was briefly reviewed, and a comprehensive summary of the research was carded out on ZnO fabrication methods and its electrical, optical, and magnetic properties were presented.展开更多

The effect of Na concentrations on the structural and optical properties of ZnO films was studied. As Na concentration increases from 0.0 at% to 16.0 at%, preferential c-axis orientation becomes more and more obvious, and the intensity of the diffraction peaks from (103) increases. The optical band gap Eg value increases from 3.261 to 3.286 eV first and then decreases as Na concentration increases from 0.0 to 2.0 at% and then beyond 2.0 at%. The intensity of all the emissions increases with increasing Na concentration and the origins of the violet emission (wavelength in the 400-407 nm) and the blue emission (wavelength at 473 nm) were discussed in detail.展开更多

The x-ray diffraction results confirm that the ZnO thin films co-doped with Al distortion, and the biaxial stresses are 1.03× 10^8. 3.26× 10^8 and Sb are of wurtzite hexagonal ZnO with a very small 5.23 × 10^8, and 6.97× 10^8 Pa, corresponding to those of the ZnO thin films co-doped with Al and Sb in concentrations of 1.5, 3.0, 4.5, 6.0 at% respectively. The optical properties reveal that the ZnO thin films co-doped with Al and Sb have obviously enhanced transmittance in the visible region. The electrical properties show that ZnO thin film co-doped with Al and Sb in a concentration of 1.5 at% has a lowest resistivity of 2.5 Ω·cm.展开更多
