(F,Ga) co-doped ZnO thin film on glass substrate was fabricated via a simple non-alkoxide sol-gel spin-coating. Contrary to the F single doped ZnO thin film, the (F,Ga) co-doped thin film showed a significant reduce in electrical resistivity after a second post-heat-treatment in reducing environment. The resulting decrease in electrical resistivity with Ga co-doping is considered to be resulted from the increases both carrier density and mobility. The optical transmittance of the (F,Ga) co-doped thin film in the visible range showed higher transmittance with Ga co-doping compared with F single doped ZnO thin film.

Zinc oxide (ZnO) based transparent oxide semiconductors have been studied due to their high transmittance and electrical conductivity. Pure ZnO have unstable optical and electrical properties at high temperatures but doped ZnO thin films can have stable optical and electrical properties. In this paper, transparent oxide semiconductors of Y-doped ZnO thin films prepared by sol-gel method. The ionic radius of $Y^{3+}$ (0.90 A) is close to that of $Zn^{2+}$ (0.74 A), which makes Y suitable dopant for ZnO thin films. The Sn-doped ZnO thin films were deposited onto quartz substrates with different atomic percentages of dopant which were Y/Zn = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 at.%. These thin films were pre-heated at $150^{\circ}C$ for 10 min and then annealed at $500^{\circ}C$ or 1 h. The structural and optical properties of the Y-doped ZnO thin films were investigated using field-emission scanning electronmicroscopy (FE-SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-visible spectroscopy, and photoluminescence (PL).

This paper describes the fabrication and characteristics of $C_2H_2$ gas sensor based on Ag-doped hierarchical ZnO nanostructures. In this work, a pure hierarchical ZnO structure was prepared using a simple hydrothermal method, and Ag nanoparticles doped the hierarchical ZnO structure were uniformly synthesized through photochemical route. The synthesized samples were characterized by SEM, TEM, EDS, XRD and PL spectra. Average size of prepared ZnO structures was around $2{\sim}3{\mu}m$ and showed highly uniform. The average size of Ag nanoparticles was 70 nm. The gas sensing properties of as-prepared products were investigated using resistivity-type gas sensors. 5 at% Ag-doped ZnO based sensors exhibited good performances for $C_2H_2$ gas in comparison with the un-doped one. The sensor based on Ag-doped hierarchical ZnO structures had linear response property from 5~1000 ppm of $C_2H_2$ concentration at working temperature of $200^{\circ}C$. The response values with 100 ppm $C_2H_2$ at $200^{\circ}C$ were 10% and 75% for pure and 5 at% Ag-doped hierarchical ZnO nanostructures, respectively. Moreover, the device showed excellent selectivity towards to $C_2H_2$ gas at optimal working temperature of $200^{\circ}C$.

Zinc Oxide (ZnO)은 wurtzite 결정구조를 가지고 있으며, 밴드갭 에너지가 약 3.3eV로 반도성 산화물이다. $In_2O_3$이 첨가된 ZnO 박막을 점자빔증착법을 이용하여 1737F 유리기판에 제조하였다. $400^{\circ}C$의 증착온도에서 $In_2O_3$의 첨가량에 따른 ZnO 박막의 결정성, 미세구조를 비롯한 전기.광학적 특성을 조사하였다. 첨가되는 $In_2O_3$의 양에 따라 투명전도성 산화막으로써의 ZnO 박막의 특성이 변화되었다. $In_2O_3$의 첨가량이 감소할수록 비정질상에서 결정성의 ZnO 막을 얻을 수 있었다. 0.2at%의 $In_2O_3$가 첨가된 출발물질에서 제조된 $In_2O_3$-doped ZnO막은 약 $6.0 {\times} 10^{-3} {\Omega}cm$ 정도의 비저항값과 가시광선 영역에서 85% 이상의 광투과도를 나타내었다.

This study develops a highly transparent ohmic contact using phosphorus doped ZnO with current spreading for p-GaN to increase the optical output power of nitride-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs). The phosphorus doped ZnO transparent ohmic contact layer was prepared by radio frequency magnetron sputtering with post-deposition annealing. The transmittance of the phosphorus doped ZnO exceeds 90% in the region of 440 nm to 500 nm. The specific contact resistance of the phosphorus doped ZnO on p-GaN was determined to be $7.82{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2$ after annealing at $700^{\circ}C$. GaN LED chips with dimensions of $300\times300{\mu}m$ fabricated with the phosphorus doped ZnO transparent ohmic contact were developed and produced a 2.7 V increase in forward voltage under a nominal forward current of 20 mA compared to GaN LED with Ni/Au Ohmic contact. However, the output power increased by 25% at the injection current of 20 mA compared to GaN LED with the Ni/Au contact scheme.

I-V characteristics of Praseodymium-based ZnO varistor doped with $Nd_2O_3$ in the range 0.0-2.0mol% sintered at 130$0^{\circ}C$ and 135$0^{\circ}C$ were investigated. In the all sides, ZnO varistors sintered at $1300^{\circ}C$ exhibited much better varistor characteristics than that at 135$0^{\circ}C$. All ZnO varistors doped with $Nd_2O_3$ sintered at $1300^{\circ}C$ exhibited good varistor characteristics but particularly ZnO varistor doped with l.Omol% $Nd_2O_3$ exhibited the best characteristics, which the nonlinear is 65.2 and the leakage current is 4.5pA. It is estimated that ZnO varistor doped with l.Omol% $Nd_2O_3$ will begin to be sufficiently used as basic composition to fabricate a good varistor.

We have fabricated (Ba,Sr)TiO3$TiO_3$ thick films doped with various amount of ZnBO dopants (1, 3, and 5 wt%) by screen printing method on the alumina substrates, which were sintered at the temperature below $1200^{\circ}C$. With increasing the amount of ZnBO dopants, the relative dielectric permittivity of ZnBO doped (Ba,Sr)$TiO_3$ was decreased, while loss tangent was increased. 1 wt% ZnBO doped (Ba,Sr)$TiO_3$ thick film has relative dielectric permittivity of 759 at 1 MHz, while 3 and 5 wt% of ZnBO doped (Ba,Sr)$TiO_3$ thick films have 624 and 554, respectively. By introducing ZnBO dopants to the (Ba,Sr)$TiO_3$ thick films, leakage current densities were decreased. The decreased leakage current with increasing ZnBO dopants can be explained by increased density and grain size of thick film on alumina substrate. We believe this decreased leakage current density probably come from the increased grain size and increased density.

Highly concentrated p-type ZnO thin films can be obtained by doping of N, P and As elements. In this study, undoped ZnO buffer layers were prepared on a (0001) sapphire substrate by a ultra high vaccum pulsed laser deposition(UHV-PLD) method. ZnO buffer layers were deposited with various deposition temperature($400{\sim}700^{\circ}C$) at 350 mtorr of oxygen working pressure. Arsenic doped(1 wt%) ZnO thin films were deposited on the ZnO buffer layers by UHV-PLD. Crystallinity of the samples were evaluated by X-ray diffractometer and scanning electron microscopy. Optical, electrical properties of the ZnO thin films were estimated by photoluminescence(PL) and Hall measurements. The optimal condition of the undoped ZnO buffer layer for the deposition of As-doped ZnO thin films was at $600^{\circ}C$ of deposition temperature.

The properties of phosphorus doped ZnO thin films deposited on (001) sapphire substrates by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) were investigated depending on various deposition conditions. The phosphorus (P) doped ZnO target was composed of ZnO + x wt% Al (x=1, 3, 5). The structural, electrical and optical properties of the ZnO thin films were measured by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Hall measurements and photoluminescence (PL). As the deposition temperature optimized, the electrical properties of the phosphorus doped ZnO (ZnO:P) layer showed a electron concentration of $7.76\times10^{16}/cm^3$, a mobility of 10.225 $cm^2/Vs$, a resistivity of 7.932 $\Omega$cm. It was observed the electrical property of the film was changed by dopant activation effect as target variations and deposition conditions.

In this study, P-doped ZnO thin films were prepared on sapphire substrates by pulsed laser deposition and annealing method. The electrical properties were investigated as a function of annealing temperatures at a fixed oxygen pressure. The XRD measurement showed that p-doped ZnO thin films were c-axis oriented. The Hall measurement showed that p-type ZnO thin film was observed. The carrier concentration of $1.18{\times}10^{16}cm^{-3}$ and the mobility of $0.96\;cm^{-3}/Vs$ were obtained for the P-doped ZnO thin film fabricated annealing temperature $850^{\circ}C$.
