The semiconductor ZnO has gained substantial interest in the research community in part
because of its large exciton binding energy (60 meV) which could lead to lasing action …

Zinc oxide (ZnO) is a wide band gap semiconductor with potential applications in
optoelectronics, transparent electronics, and spintronics. The high efficiency of UV emission …

Application of semiconductors as electric and optoelectronic devices depends critically on
their dopability. Failure to dope a material, ie, to produce enough free charge carriers …

ZnO has attracted considerable attention for optical device applications because of several
potential advantages over GaN, such as commercial availability of bulk single crystals and a …

Both n‐type and p‐type ZnO will be required for development of homojunction light‐emitting
diodes (LEDs) and laser diodes (LDs). It is easy to obtain strong n‐type ZnO, but very difficult …

Compact, solid‐state UV emitters have many potential applications, and ZnO‐based
materials are ideal for the wavelength range 390 nm and lower. However, the most efficient …

We report the synthesis of colloidal Mn2+-doped ZnO (Mn2+: ZnO) quantum dots and the
preparation of room-temperature ferromagnetic nanocrystalline thin films. Mn2+: ZnO …

Synthesis of materials with minimum number of trials is of paramount importance towards
the acceleration of advanced materials development. The enormous complexity involved in …

Based on our first-principle calculations, ZnO doped by a nonmagnetic 2 p light element (N)
is predicted to be ferromagnetic. The local magnetic moments that are mainly localized on …

Reproducible Sb-doped p-type ZnO films were grown on n-Si (100) by electron-cyclotron-
resonance-assisted molecular-beam epitaxy. The existence of Sb in ZnO: Sb films was …
