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 …

In the past ten years we have witnessed a revival of, and subsequent rapid expansion in, the
research on zinc oxide (ZnO) as a semiconductor. Being initially considered as a substrate …

We present a review of current research on the optical properties of ZnO nanostructures. We
provide a brief introduction to different fabrication methods for various ZnO nanostructures …

ZnO nanocrystals are receiving renewed attraction due to their multifunctional properties.
Selective enhancement and tuning of their optical and electrical properties are essential for …

We report the measurements of third-order nonlinear optical properties of undoped zinc
oxide and manganese doped zinc oxide thin films with different doping concentrations …

The basics of four-wave mixing (FWM) and recent advances in FWM microscopy are
reviewed with a particular emphasis on applications in the field of nanomaterials. The vast …

Linear and nonlinear optical properties of Manganese bis-(8-hydroxyquinoline)(Mnq2) were
investigated in this work as thin film. The thin film of Mnq2 were deposited by Physical Vapor …

Zinc oxide‐zinc tungstate (ZnO‐ZnWO4) is a self‐organized eutectic composite consisting of
parallel ZnO thin layers (lamellae) embedded in a dielectric ZnWO4 matrix. The …

In the present study zinc oxide doped Nickel thin films (ZnO: Ni) were deposited on glass
substrates using a chemical spray ultrasonic technique. The effect of Ni concentration on the …

In the present work, the effect of europium (Eu) dopant on the third-order nonlinear optical
(NLO) responses of ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) is investigated. The NPs are synthesized by …
