Recently the point defect responsible for the intra-3$d$ luminescence of cobalt in doped ZnO samples has been indentified\,\cite{pssb2019}. In this work we further extend our investigation to other point defects in Co-doped ZnO. We use…

Possibilities of turning intrinsically n-type oxide semiconductors like ZnO and Zn$_{1-x}$Mg$_x$O into p-type materials are investigated. Motivated by recent experiments on Zn$_{1-x}$Mg$_x$O doped with nitrogen we analyze the electronic…

We have grown nitrogen-doped ZnO films grown by two kinds of epitaxial methods on lattice-matched ScAlMgO$_4$ substrates. We measured the photoluminescence (PL) of the two kinds of ZnO:N layers in the donor-acceptor-pair transition region.…

ZnO-based photocatalysts are widely investigated photocatalytic materials for pollutant degradation due to their low cost, abundance, and eco-friendly characteristics. However, the effectiveness of its photocatalytic properties is limited…

Previous luminescence and absorption experiments in Co-doped ZnO revealed two ionization and one intrashell transition of $d(\textrm{Co}^{2+})$ electrons. Those optical properties are analyzed within the generalized gradient approximation…

ZnO/GaN alloys exhibit exceptional photocatalyst applications owing to the flexibly tunable band gaps that cover a wide range of the solar spectrum, and thus have attracted extensive attentions over the past few years. In this study,…
