Résumé

We report on the structural, magnetic, optical and transport properties of As-doped Zn0.9Co0.1O thin films. X-ray diffraction indicates highly (0 0 0 1) textured samples free of secondary phases. Transmission UV-Vis spectroscopy shows that Co is in the +2 oxidation state and substitute for the Zn2+ ions of the ZnO matrix. ZnCoO was doped with 0.5% As which lead to n-type doping. Before and after As-implantation, the films remain ferromagnetic up to 350 K and the magnetization is unchanged. Surprisingly, there is no real influence of the doping process on the exchange interaction mediated by itinerant carriers between magnetic ions. © 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Dopage (semi-conducteur)

Dans le domaine des semi-conducteurs, le dopage est l'action d'ajouter des impuretés en petites quantités à une substance pure afin de modifier ses propriétés de conductivité. Les propriétés des semi-conducteurs sont en grande partie régies par la quantité de porteurs de charge qu'ils contiennent. Ces porteurs sont les électrons ou les trous. Le dopage d'un matériau consiste à introduire, dans sa matrice, des atomes d'un autre matériau. Ces atomes vont se substituer à certains atomes initiaux et ainsi introduire davantage d'électrons ou de trous.

Magnetic semiconductor

Magnetic semiconductors are semiconductor materials that exhibit both ferromagnetism (or a similar response) and useful semiconductor properties. If implemented in devices, these materials could provide a new type of control of conduction. Whereas traditional electronics are based on control of charge carriers (n- or p-type), practical magnetic semiconductors would also allow control of quantum spin state (up or down).

Transparent conducting film

Transparent conducting films (TCFs) are thin films of optically transparent and electrically conductive material. They are an important component in a number of electronic devices including liquid-crystal displays, OLEDs, touchscreens and photovoltaics. While indium tin oxide (ITO) is the most widely used, alternatives include wider-spectrum transparent conductive oxides (TCOs), conductive polymers, metal grids and random metallic networks, carbon nanotubes (CNT), graphene, nanowire meshes and ultra thin metal films.
