This review attempts to compile the physics and chemistry of defects in zinc oxide (ZnO), at
both, the fundamental and application levels. The defects, either inherent ones or introduced …

The current understanding of various dislocation phenomena, including nucleation, core
structures, kink properties, impurity effects, and point defect formation and absorption in …

Wide bandgap semiconductors such as Zinc Oxide (ZnO) have earned much attention on
account of its interesting optical and electrical properties. Also, doping ZnO with suitable …

Nanoscale constituents in bulk materials can promote enhanced boundary-scattering in the
transport of phonons as well as electrons, which is considered a key design factor for …

Zinc oxide nanowires were grown by vapor transport using the vapor–liquid–solid growth
mechanism. The zinc oxide nanowires were implanted with transition metals (Co, Fe or Ni) …

Optical properties of wurtzite ZnO bulk single crystals in which an arbitrary number (typically
10 9–10 10 cm− 2⁠) of fresh dislocations were introduced intentionally by the plastic …

The zinc oxide films were prepared by the sol–gel method on the ordinary glass substrates.
The activity of slip systems were evaluated by X-ray diffraction line broadening analysis …

The mechanical strengths and dislocation activities in wide band-gap semiconductors SiC,
AlN, GaN, ZnO and ZnSe at elevated temperatures are summarized. From investigations by …

Extended defects acting as non‐radiative recombination center or those acting as radiative
one were, respectively, studied by transmission electron microscopy under the illumination …

The objective of this thesis was to develop a fast-response multifunctional MEMS (Micro
Electro Mechanical Systems) sensor for the simultaneous measurement of in-cylinder …
