Photoelectric Properties of N Doped MgZnO Thin Films
ZnO is an excellent UV light-emitting and lasing materials. Nitrogen is considered to be the ideal acceptor dopant for p-type ZnO and MgZnO. However
the lattice integrity of the nitrogen-doped samples grown at the lower growth temperature is remarkably influenced
which results in a further decrease in the carrier mobility of the zinc oxide. In order to study the effect of N doped MgZnO films
N-doped ZnO and MgZnO thin films were grown on sapphire substrate by molecular beam epitaxy. Comparing the difference between N doped MgZnO and ZnO
the experimental results show that the carrier mobility increased significantly when the Mg source temperature was 245℃ and 255℃
which is attributed to the fact that Mg-N bonding alleviates the formation of N-N pairs on the oxygen sites and relieves the lattice distortion. At the same time
the donor concentration in N-doped ZnO thin films can be reduced by one order of magnitude when the Mg source temperature is 275℃
which is advantageous for p-type doping.
