Realization of Ultraviolet Electroluminescence from ZnO Homojunction Fabricated on Silicon Substrate with p-Type ZnO:N Layer Formed by Radical N2O Doping

ZnO homojunction light-emitting diodes are fabricated on Si（100） substrates by plasma assisted metal organic chemical vapour deposition. A p-type layer of nitrogen-doped ZnO film is formed using radical N2O as the acceptor precursor. The n-type ZnO layer is composed of un-doped ZnO film. The device exhibits desirable rectifying behaviour with a turn-on voltage of 3.3 V and a reverse breakdown voltage higher than 6 V. Distinct electrolumineseence emissions centred at 395nm and 490nm are detected from this device at forward current higher than 20mA at room temperature.     

Effect of Different Substrate Temperature on Sb-Doped ZnO Thin Films Prepared by Pulsed Laser Deposition on Sapphire Substrates

Sb-doped ZnO thin films are deposited on c-plane sapphire substrates by pulsed laser deposition. Hall results indicate that the conductivity of the Sb-doped ZnO thin films is strongly dependent on the substrate temperature. The sample deposited at the temperature of 550°C exhibits p-type conductivity. It gives a resistivity of 15.25Ω＆#12539;cm, with a Hall mobility of 1.79cm2V-1s-1 and a carrier concentration of 2.290×1017cm-3 at room temperature. The x-ray diffraction indicates that the Sb-doped ZnO thin films deposited in the range of 450-650°C are high c-axis oriented. Low-temperature photoluminescence spectra indicate that the sample deposited at 550°C shows the strong acceptor-bound exciton （A0X） emission.

Enhanced p-Type ZnO Films through Nitrogen and Argentum Codoping Grown by Ultrasonic Spray Pyrolysis

The N-Ag codoped ZnO films are deposited on quartz glass substrates by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis technology. The results indicate that the p-type conductivity in ZnO films is greatly enhanced by the double acceptor codoping of N and Ag compared with that of Ag- and N-monodoped ZnO films, and the NAg codoped low-resistivity p-type ZnO films with the resistivity of 1.05 Ω·cm, relatively high carrier concentration of 5.43×10^17 cm^-3, and Hall mobility of 10.09 cm^2 V^-1s^-1 are obtained under optimized conditions. This achievement confirms that p- type ZnO with acceptable properties for optoelectronic applications could be realized by simultaneous codoping with two potential acceptors.
