Effect of Vanadium Doping on Structure and Properties of ZnSe Films Prepared by Metal-Organic Vapor Phase Epitaxy

چکیده
Vanadium-doped ZnSe films were epitaxially grown on (100) GaAs substrates by metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy. The crystal structure and the state of vanadium in the ZnSe crystal were investigated using X-ray diffractometry, infrared absorption, and photocurrent. It was revealed that zinc sites in the ZnSe crystal were substituted by vanadium atoms on the basis of the results of infrared absorption which peaked around 2200 nm as a result of the presence of V2þ, and the photocurrent which peaked at 860 nm as a result of the internal transition between V2þ and V3þ. The magnetic properties were measured by using a superconducting quantum interface device at room temperature, and it was found that the magnetization curve of ZnSe was markedly changed by vanadium doping.

Structural and electrical properties of In-doped vanadium oxide thin films prepared by spray pyrolysis
The In-doped vanadium pentoxide nanostructures with different doping levels including 0, 10, 20 and 30 at.% were prepared by the spray pyrolysis technique. The prepared thin films were characterized by the x-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The XRD results revealed that the films were crystalline in tetragonal phase. Increasing the In-doping level made the structure...
