We have investigated the polarity of zinc oxide (ZnO) and Al-doped ZnO films grown on (11¯20) and (0001) sapphire substrates, using coaxial impact collision ion scattering spectroscopy. The films grown by pulsed laser deposition with a nominally undoped ZnO ceramic target had a (000¯1) surface, whereas the films prepared with a 1 mol% Al-doped ZnO ceramic target had a (0001) surface. The usage of Al-doped and undoped targets caused no difference in the in-plane lattice orientation. Electron microscope observations revealed that polarity change due to doping occurred without the formation of any interfacial phase between ZnO and sapphire.

AbstractGa-doped ZnO layers were grown on sapphire substrates by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). Low-temperature photoluminescence (PL) and room-temperature Raman spectra were investigated. Defect-related modes at 277 and 510 cm−1 appeared in the Raman spectrum for Ga-doped layers. The PL spectrum is dominated by a donor-bound exciton peak at 3.356 eV. A weak yellow luminescence (YL) band peaking at 2.1-2.2 eV was studied in detail. It shifted to higher photon energies (up to 0.1 eV) with increasing excitation intensity. The YL band is attributed to transitions from shallow donors to a deep acceptor. The acceptor is thought to be a Zn vacancy-related defect because the intensity of the YL band decreased dramatically with Ga doping.
