Abstract: | This paper studies the evolution of native point defects with
temperature in ZnO single crystals by positron lifetime and
coincidence Doppler broadening (CDB) spectroscopy, combined with the
calculated results of positron lifetime and electron momentum
distribution. The calculated and experimental results of the
positron lifetime in ZnO bulk ensure the presence of zinc
monovacancy, and zinc monovacancy concentration begins to decrease
above 600\,\du\ annealing treatment. CDB is an effective method
to distinguish the elemental species, here we combine this technique
with calculated electron momentum distribution to determine the
oxygen vacancies, which do not trap positrons due to their positive
charge. The CDB spectra show that oxygen vacancies do not appear
until 600\,\du\ annealing treatment, and increase with the increase
of annealing temperature. This study supports the idea that green
luminescence has a close relation with oxygen vacancies. |
