The p-type ZnO thin films obtained by a reversed substitution doping method of thermal oxidation of Zn3N2 precursors

P-type ZnO is crucial for the realization of ZnO-based homojunction ultraviolet optoelectronic devices. The problem associated with the preparation of stable p-type ZnO with high hole density still hinders device applications. In this paper,we introduce an alternative route to stabilizing N in the o...

Summary:P-type ZnO is crucial for the realization of ZnO-based homojunction ultraviolet optoelectronic devices. The problem associated with the preparation of stable p-type ZnO with high hole density still hinders device applications. In this paper,we introduce an alternative route to stabilizing N in the oxidation process, the thermal stability of p-ZnO is significantly improved. Finally, we discuss the limitations of the alternative doping method and provide some prospective outlook of the method.
