摘要: Abstract We calculated the electronic structure and optical properties of Eu mono-doped ZnO systems with or without O vacancy. also determined relative energy ferromagnetic antiferromagnetic orders Eu-double-doped systems. The double-doped possess high Curie temperature achieve room ferromagnetism. magnetism in system vacancy is caused by -Eu3+-O2--Eu3+- bound magnetopolaron (BMP) model. more stable than that vacancy, such attributed to -Eu3+-VO++-Eu3+- BMP absorption spectrum for red shifted, this finding confirms Eu-mono-doped a candidate photocatalyst various applications. Therefore, can be practically used as an unambiguous diluted magnetic semiconductor.
