Zinc Oxide and Related Materials

Zinc oxide and related compound semiconductors (CdO, MgO) have drawn considerable interest in recent years due to their suitability for visible and UV light emitters and detectors, as well as for high-temperature electronics. This volume, first published in 2007, brings together researchers and technologists from academia, industry and government laboratories around the world, all working in various aspects of ZnO and related materials. In addition to fundamental materials science issues, the volume focuses on device design, processing, and technology of photonic and electronic devices including light-emitting diodes and gas, chemical and biosensors. Topics include: devices; defects; spintronics and magnetism; growth; optical properties and nanostructures; doping and processing TFTs.
