Hybrid Modulation-Doping of Solution-Processed Ultrathin Layers of ZnO Using Molecular Dopants.
نویسندگان
چکیده
An alternative doping approach that exploits the use of organic donor/acceptor molecules for the effective tuning of the free electron concentration in quasi-2D ZnO transistor channel layers is reported. The method relies on the deposition of molecular dopants/formulations directly onto the ultrathin ZnO channels. Through careful choice of materials combinations, electron transfer from the dopant molecule to ZnO and vice versa is demonstrated.

Low-Temperature PLD-Growth of Ultrathin ZnO Nanowires by Using ZnxAl1−xO and ZnxGa1−xO Seed Layers
ZnO nanowires (NWs) are used as building blocks for a wide range of different devices, e.g. light emitters, resonators, and sensors. Integration of the NWs into such structures requires a high level of NWs' diameter control. Here, we present that the doping concentration of Zn x Al1-x O and Zn x Ga1-x O seed layers has a strong impact on the NW growth and allows to tune the diameter of the NWs ...

Solution-based ZnO nanorod arrays (NRAs) were modified with controlled N doping by an advanced ion implantation method, and were subsequently utilized as photoanodes for photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting under visible light irradiation. A gradient distribution of N dopants along the vertical direction of ZnO nanorods was realized. N doped ZnO NRAs displayed a markedly enhanced visible-...
