GaN films doped with Mg or Zn were obtained via radio-frequency magnetron sputtering on silicon substrates at room temperature and used laboratory-prepared targets with Mg-doped or Zn-doped GaN powders. X-ray diffraction patterns showed broadening peaks, which could have been related to the appearance of nano-crystallites with an average of 7 nm. Scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy showed good adherence to silicon non-native substrate, as well as homogeneity, with a grain size average of 0.14 µm, and 0.16 µm for the GaN films doped with Zn or Mg, respectively. X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy demonstrated the presence of a very small amount of magnesium (2.10 mol%), and zinc (1.15 mol%) with binding energies of 1303.18, and 1024.76 eV, respectively. Photoluminescence spectrum for the Zn-doped GaN films had an emission range from 2.89 to 3.0 eV (429.23–413.50 nm), while Mg-doped GaN films had an energy emission in a blue-violet band with a range from 2.80 to 3.16 eV (443.03–392.56 nm). Raman spectra showed the classical vibration modes A1(TO), E1(TO), and E2(High) for the hexagonal structure of GaN.

Zirconium-doped MgxZn1−xO (Zr-doped MZO) mixed-oxide films were investigated, and the temperature sensitivity of their electric and optical properties was characterized. Zr-doped MZO films were deposited through radio-frequency magnetron sputtering using a 4-inch ZnO/MgO/ZrO2 (75/20/5 wt%) target. Hall measurement, X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmittance, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) data were obtained. The lowest sheet resistance, highest mobility, and highest concentration were 1.30 × 103 Ω/sq, 4.46 cm2/Vs, and 7.28 × 1019 cm−3, respectively. The XRD spectra of the as-grown and annealed Zr-doped MZO films contained MgxZn1−xO(002) and ZrO2(200) coupled with Mg(OH)2(101) at 34.49°, 34.88°, and 38.017°, respectively. The intensity of the XRD peak near 34.88° decreased with temperature because the films that segregated Zr4+ from ZrO2(200) increased. The absorption edges of the films were at approximately 348 nm under 80% transmittance because of the Mg content. XPS revealed that the amount of Zr4+ increased with the annealing temperature. Zr is a potentially promising double donor, providing up to two extra free electrons per ion when used in place of Zn2+.
