Recent experiments reported fascinating phenomenon of photoluminescence (PL) blueshift in Ge-doped ZnO. To understand it, we examined the structural, electronic and optical properties of Ge-doped ZnO (ZnO:Ge) systematically by means of density functional theory calculations. Our results show that Ge atoms tend to cluster in heavily doped ZnO. Ge clusters can limit the conductivity of doped ZnO but reinforce the near-band-edge emission. The substitutional Ge for Zn leads to Fermi level pinning in the conduction band, which indicates Ge-doped ZnO is of n-type conductivity character. It is found that the delocalized Ge 4s states hybridize with conduction band bottom, and is dominant in the region near the Fermi level, suggesting that Ge-4s states provides major free carriers in ZnO:Ge crystal. The observed blueshift of PL in Ge-doped ZnO originates from the electron transition energy from the valence band to the empty levels above Fermi level larger than the gap of undoped ZnO. The electron transition between the gap states induced by oxygen vacancy and conduction band minimum may be the origin of the new PL peak at 590 nm. 相似文献

采用基于密度泛函理论(DFT)框架下广义梯度近似(GGA)的PBE平面波超软赝势方法,计算了本征ZnO,Al掺杂ZnO(ZnAlO)和Ga掺杂ZnO(ZnGaO)的能带结构、态密度、复介电函数和复电导率. 其中Al或Ga是以替位杂质的形式进入ZnO晶格. 计算结果表明纤锌矿型ZnO,ZnAlO和ZnGaO都是直接带隙半导体材料,掺杂后ZnO的带隙变小,且ZnAlO的带隙略大于ZnGaO. 掺杂后ZnO的电子结构发生变化,费米能级由本征态时位于价带顶上移进入导带,ZnO表现为n型掺杂半导体材料,掺杂后在导带底出现大量由掺杂原子贡献的自由载流子—电子,明显提高了电导率和介电函数,改善了ZnO的导电性能,并且ZnAlO的导电性能要略好于ZnGaO. 相似文献

The first-principles density functional calculation is used to investigate the electronic structures and magnetic properties of Mn-doped and N-co-doped ZnO nanofilms.The band structure calculation shows that the band gaps of ZnO films with 2,4,and 6 layers are larger than the band gap of the bulk with wurtzite structure and decrease with the increase of film thickness.However,the four-layer ZnO nanofilms exhibit ferromagnetic phases for Mn concentrations less than 24% and 12% for Mn-doping performed in the whole layers and two layers of the film respectively,while they exhibit spin glass phases for higher Mn concentrations.It is also found,on the one hand,that the spin glass phase turns into the ferromagnetic one,with the substitution of nitrogen atoms for oxygen atoms,for nitrogen concentrations higher than 16% and 5% for Mn-doping performed in the whole layers and two layers of the film respectively.On the other hand,the spin-glass state is more stable for ZnO bulk containing 5% of Mn impurities,while the ferromagnetic phase is stable by introducing the p-type carriers into the bulk system.Moreover,it is shown that using the effective field theory for ferromagnetic system,the Curie temperature is close to the room temperature for the undamped Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yoshida(RKKY) interaction. 相似文献

First-Principles Calculation of Electronic Structure and Optical Properties of Sb-Doped ZnO 下载免费PDF全文
The geometric structure, electronic structure, optical properties and the formation energy of Sb-doped ZnO with the wurtzite structure are investigated using the first-principles ultra-soft pseudo-potential approach of plane wave based upon the density functional theory. The calculated results indicate that the volume of ZnO doped with Sb becomes larger, and the doping system yields the lowest formation energy of Sb on the interstitial site and the oxygen site. Furthermore, Sb dopant first occupies the octahedral oxygen sites of the wurtzite structure. It is found that Sb substituting on oxygen site behaves as a deep acceptor and shows the p-type degenerate semiconductor character. After doping, the electron density difference demonstrates the considerable electron charge density redistribution, which induces the effect of Sb-doped ZnO to increase the charge overlap between atoms. The density of states move towards lower energy and the optical band gap is broadened. Our culated results are in agreement with other experimental results and could make more precise monitoring and controlling possible during the growth of ZnO p-type materials. 相似文献

By employing a density functional theory plane-wave pseudopotential method, we investigated band gap reduction and magnetism as well as electronic structures of (Cu, S)-codoped ZnO. Our calculations indicated that Cu and/or S-doped ZnO can reduce the band gap of ZnO. The (Cu, S)-codoped ZnO has a large band gap reduction of 0.37 eV, two times larger than that in Cu-doped ZnO. S atom has no contribution for the total magnetic moment of (Cu, S)-codoped ZnO, whereas it plays a central role in spin-polarizing of both Cu and S dopants due to strong coupling between Cu 3d and S 3p states. This would offer a new strategy for designing narrow band gap devices with magnetism. 相似文献

In nanomaterials, optical anisotropies reveal a fundamental relationship between structural and optical properties, in which directional optical properties can be exploited to enhance the performance of optoelectronic devices. First principles calculation based on density functional theory(DFT) with the generalized gradient approximation(GGA) are carried out to investigate the energy band gap structure on silicon(Si) and germanium(Ge) nanofilms. Simulation results show that the band gaps in Si(100) and Ge(111) nanofilms become the direct-gap structure in the thickness range less than 7.64 nm and7.25 nm respectively, but the band gaps of Si(111) and Ge(110) nanofilms still keep in an indirect-gap structure and are independent on film thickness, and the band gaps of Si(110) and Ge(100) nanofilms could be transferred into the direct-gap structure in nanofilms with smaller thickness. It is amazing that the band gaps of Si~((1-x)/2)Ge~xSi~((1-x)/2)sandwich structure become the direct-gap structure in a certain area whether(111) or(100) surface. The band structure change of Si and Ge thin films in three orientations is not the same and the physical mechanism is very interesting, where the changes of the band gaps on the Si and Ge nanofilms follow the quantum confinement effects. 相似文献

In this Letter we investigate the electronic properties of the bulk and the nanofilm BeO in wurtzite structure. We performed a first-principles pseudo-potential method within the generalized gradient approximation. We will give more importance to the changes in band structure and density of states between the bulk structure and its derived nanofilms. The bonding characterization will be investigated via the analysis Mulliken population and charge density contours. It is found that the nanofilm retains the same properties as its bulk structure with slight changes in electronic properties and band structure which may offer some unusual transport properties. 相似文献

In a one-dimensional metal, the energy of the electrons can always be lowered by opening an energy gap around the Fermi energy (the Peierls instability): all occupied states are then in the lower-energy band, while the higher-energy band is empty. The opening of such a gap requires a structural distortion, resulting in the formation of a charge density wave. In a three-dimensional system, the gapping takes place in the region where the Fermi surface is nested (i.e., large parallel areas of the Fermi surface are spanned by a certain wave vector), giving rise to partial gapping of the Fermi surface, accompanied by a structural distortion. In this case, a charge density wave can coexist with superconductivity. Both charge-density-wave and superconducting transitions involve the formation of an energy gap at the Fermi energy. A charge-density-wave gap is formed at a region of the Fermi surface where there is a high density of electronic states. In such a material, there is also a strong electronphonon interaction. A region with high density of states and a high electron-phonon interaction is just the portion of the Fermi surface that will enhance the superconducting transition temperature, according to the BCS (Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer) theory. When a charge-density-wave gap opens up at the Fermi surface these electronic states are no longer available to form Cooper pairs and to enhance the superconducting transition temperature. The opposite is also true; if a superconducting gap opens, the states involved in forming this gap are no longer available to take part in a charge-density-wave transition. It appears that charge density waves and superconductivity compete for the same portion of the Fermi surface and thus inhibit each other. In this paper, we will review a unique situation with respect to the competition between these two ground states and will also discuss how this competition affects the anomalous behavior of critical field in EuMo6S, at high pressure. 相似文献

基于密度泛函理论的第一性原理,使用GGA+U方法计算出N、Nd分别单掺ZnO及N、Nd共掺ZnO晶体的形成能,能带结构,态密度及光学性质.经过对比发现:N、Nd各掺杂ZnO中,共掺体系比单掺体系更容易形成,其中低浓度掺杂难度更低;共掺体系随着掺杂浓度的升高,其畸变的强度就越强,禁带宽度变窄,电子跃迁到导带上所需的能量更小,光吸收系数较大,并且都产生了红移,光谱响应范围扩展到了整个可见光区域;共掺体系在低能区域的介电谱峰值较高,说明其极化能力较强,光生电场强度较大,会使光激发载流子在晶体内的迁移变快,对电荷的束缚能力增强.因此N、Nd共掺可以有效提升ZnO的光催化性和极化能力. 相似文献

The structural parameters, density of states, electronic band structure, charge density, and optical properties of orthorhombic SrBi2Ta2O9 have been investigated using the plane-wave ultrasoft pseudopotential technique based on the first-principle density functional theory (DFT). The calculated structural parameters were in agreement with the previous theoretical and experimental data. The band structure showed an indirect (S to Γ) band gap with 2.071 eV. The chemical bonding along with population analysis has been studied. The complex dielectric function, refractive index, and extinction coefficient were calculated to understand the optical properties of this compound, which showed an optical anisotropy in the components of polarization directions (100), (010), and (001). 相似文献
