Large-scale Ni-doped ZnO nanowire (NW) arrays are grown. The electrical conductivity of a single Ni-doped ZnO NW has been increased for 30 times. The photoluminescence (PL) spectrum of the doped ZnO NWs has a red shift, suggesting possible doping induced band edge bending. The doped NW arrays could be the basis for building integrated nanoscale transistors, sensors, and photodetectors.

Ni doped ZnO (Zn1 xNixO) thin films were grown on quartz substrates via magnetron sputtering deposition process with the Ni concentrations of 5, 10 and 20 at.% in the films.
