چکیده

Photoluminescence and cathodoluminescence ~CL! spectra of stoichiometric and oxygen-deficient ZnO films grown on sapphire were examined. It was found that the intensities of the green and yellow emissions depend on the width of the free-carrier depletion region at the particle surface; the thinner the width, the larger the intensity. Experimental results and spectral analyses suggest that the mechanism responsible for the green ~yellow! emission is the recombination of a delocalized electron close to the conduction band with a deeply trapped hole in the single ionized oxygen vacancy Vo 1 ~the single negatively charged interstitial oxygen ion Oi ) center in the particle. © 2001 American Institute of Physics. @DOI: 10.1063/1.1361288#

Enhanced photoluminescence from polycrystalline ZnO films resulting from oxygen processing

We report studies of photoluminescence from polycrystalline ZnO films deposited on sapphire as a function of the in situ oxygen pressure during growth and ex situ annealing. The ultraviolet photoluminescence was observed to increase by more than two orders of magnitude as a result of the annealing treatment. Enhanced cathodoluminescence was observed from the same films. The role of oxygen defec...

Structural, Optical and Defect State Analyses of ZnO Nanoparticle Films

Synthesis of ZnO nanostructures films by a co-precipitation followed by the deposition processed onto a glass substrate by spin-coating technique was carried out. The effect of annealing temperatures (from 250 to 325 °C for 30 min) on the structural and optical properties of the ZnO films have been investigated. The structural studies reveal that ZnO films are polycrystalline with hexagonal wur...

Studies on sol-gel dip-coated nanostructured ZnO thin films

Nanostructured ZnO thin films were prepared by sol-gel dip coating technique. Zinc acetate and ammonium hydroxide were used as precursors and ethanol was as solvent. Ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH) solution was added drop-wise under vigorous stirring to obtain the sol-gel of different pH (varying from 6.9 to 7.2). ZnO thin films were obtained by dipping the glass substrates for few seconds and then ...

Effect of growth time on ZnO thin films prepared by low temperature chemical bath deposition on PS substrate

ZnO thin films were successfully synthesized on a porous silicon (PS) substrate by chemical bathdeposition method. X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM),and photoluminescence (PL) analyses were carried out to investigate the effect of growth duration(3, 4, 5, and 6 h) on the optical and structural properties of the aligned ZnO nanorods. T...

Process dependence of H passivation and doping in H-implanted ZnO

We used depth-resolved cathodoluminescence spectroscopy (DRCLS), photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy and temperature-dependent Hall-effect (TDHE) measurements to describe the strong dependence of H passivation and doping in H-implanted ZnO on thermal treatment. Increasing H implantation dose increases passivation of Zn and oxygen vacancy-related defects, while reducing deep level emissions. Ove...
