This review article first presents a summary of current understanding of the magnetic
properties and intrinsic ferromagnetism of transition-metal (TM)-doped ZnO films, which are …

This review presents the recent progress in computational materials design, experimental
realization, and control methods of spinodal nanodecomposition under three-and two …

The detailed science and technology of crystalline oxide film growth using vacuum methods
is reviewed and discussed with an eye toward gaining fundamental insights into the …

We report element specific structural and magnetic investigations on Zn 1-x Co x O epitaxial
films using synchrotron radiation. Co dopants exclusively occupy Zn sites as revealed by x …

The well-known “band-gap” problem in approximate density functionals is manifested mainly
in an overly low energy of the conduction band (CB). As a consequence, the localized gap …

Magnetic 3 d ions doped into wide-gap oxides show signatures of room-temperature
ferromagnetism, although their concentration is two orders of magnitude smaller than that in …

This work reports the synthesis of Mn-doped ZnO nanostructures using ice-bath assisted
sonochemical technique. The impact of Mn-doping on structural, morphological, optical, and …

The author reviews the present understanding of the hole-mediated ferromagnetism in
magnetically doped semiconductors and oxides as well as the origin of high temperature …

Transition metal oxides (TMOs) play an important role in scientific research and
technological advance. Attributing to the excellent physical and chemical properties, they …

Dilute magnetic semiconductors have shown a great encouragement from the technological
point of view owing to their potential application in multiple spintronics, such as spin light …
