We report interesting observations in 1.2 MeV Ar8+ ion irradiated ZnO which, to the best of our knowledge, have not been published earlier and will be useful for the scientific community engaged in research on ZnO. Irradiation with the…

We report a systematic study on 1.2 MeV Ar^8+ irradiated ZnO by x-ray diffraction (XRD), room temperature photoluminescence (PL) and ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) absorption measurements. ZnO retains its wurtzite crystal structure up to…

Results from hybrid density functional theory calculations on the thermodynamic stability and optical properties of the Zn vacancy ($V_{\text{Zn}}$) complexed with common donor impurities in ZnO are reported. Complexing $V_{\text{Zn}}$ with…

The present article describes the size induced changes in the structural arrangement of intrinsic defects present in chemically synthesized ZnO nanoparticles of various sizes. Routine X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Transmission Electron…

The present work aims to study the effect of ion irradiation on structural and electrical properties and their correlation with the defects in Zn1-xMnxO type system. Zn1-xMnxO (x = 0.02, 0.04) samples have been synthesized by solid-state…

Several experimental studies have referred to the grain boundary (GB) defect as the origin of the ferromagnetism in ZnO. However, the mechanism of this hypothesis has never been confirmed. Present study investigates the atomic structure and…

Oxygen vacancy (VO) is a common native point defects that plays crucial roles in determining the physical and chemical properties of metal oxides such as ZnO. However, fundamental understanding of VO is still very sparse. Specifically,…

An atomic and electronic structure of the bulk and thin-film morphologies of ZnO were modified using pulsed Bi-ion implantation (1x1017 cm-2 fluence, 70 min exposure under Bi-ion beam, EBi+ = 30 keV, pulsed ion-current density of not more…

We generalize and systematize basic experimental data on optical and luminescence properties of ZnO single crystals, thin films, powders, ceramics, and nanocrystals. We consider and study mechanisms by which two main emission bands occur, a…

Potential applications of Zr/Al ODS alloys vests on the irradiation stability of the Y4Zr3O12 dispersoids. Fundamental studies to identify the type of defects are important in order to recognize pathways for damage alleviation. In this…

We have characterized the growth of ZnO using sequential infiltration synthesis (SiS) on PS-b-PMMA block copolymers (BCP) of spherical and cylindrical sub-20nm morphologies and studied how the photoluminescence of these nanostructures…

Positron annihilation spectroscopy is used to study point defects in Zn/1-x/Mn/x/GeAs/2/ crystals with low Mn content 0 < x < 0.042 with disordered zincblende and chalcopyrite structure. The role of negatively charged vacancies and…

Due to its wide band gap and high carrier mobility, ZnO is an attractive material for light-harvesting and optoelectronic applications. Its functional efficiency, however, is strongly affected by defect-related in-gap states that open up…

ZnO films have been grown on gold (111) by electrodeposition using two different OH- sources, nitrate and peroxide, in order to obtain a comparative study between these films. The morphology, structural and optical characterization of the…

This work explores the Zn vacancy in ZnO using hybrid density functional theory calculations. The Zn vacancy is predicted to be an exceedingly deep polaronic acceptor that can bind a localized hole on each of the four nearest-neighbor O…

The effects of high concentration of point defects in crystalline ZrSiO4 as originated by exposure to radiation, have been simulated using first principles density functional calculations. Structural relaxation and vibrational studies were…

Hybrid functional calculations reveal the Zn-O divacancy in ZnO, consisting of adjacent Zn and O vacancies, as an electrically active defect exhibiting charge states ranging from $2+$ to $2-$ within the band gap. Notably, the divacancy…

The electrical and structural characteristics of 50 nm zinc oxide (ZnO) metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM) ultraviolet (UV) photodetectors subjected to proton irradiation at different temperatures are reported and compared. We irradiated the…

The condensation of zinc oxide nano clusters produced in gas phase has been evidenced in the ablation of a ZnO solid target by a pulsed ArF laser. We compare the spatio-temporal evolution of the shape of ZnO ablated plasma plume, both in…

Understanding the structure of ZnO surface reconstructions and their resultant properties is crucial to the rational design of ZnO-containing devices ranging from optoelectronics to catalysts. Here, we are motivated by recent experimental…
