Among the semiconductor metal oxides, some semiconductor structures are identified for
their unique and vast potential applications in optoelectronic, field effect transistors, solar …

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 …

Nanoscale metal oxide materials have been attracting much attention because of their
unique size-and dimensionality-dependent physical and chemical properties as well as …

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 …

Over the past decade intensive research efforts have been carried out by researchers
around the globe on exploring the effects of dilute doping of magnetic impurities on the …

A clear correlation between defect‐related emissions and the magnetization of ZnO
nanorods synthesized by a one‐step aqueous chemical method is demonstrated. The …

We observed that ZnO bulk ceramics prepared by solid state reaction route at 1300° C
exhibited unexpected room temperature ferromagnetic (RTFM) property. In the absence of …

In order to elucidate room-temperature (RT) ferromagnetism (FM) in ZnO, we have analyzed
a multitude of experimental publications with respect to the ratio of grain-boundary (GB) area …

In this short topical review, a brief account of the evolution of defects due to controlled
changes in polycrystalline zinc oxide has been presented. X-ray diffraction, Positron …

Abstract The Cu (3 to 15 at%) is incorporated into ZnO thin film by atomic beam co-sputtering
has been investigated for enhancement in room temperature ferromagnetism and green …
