摘要: The present study focuses on the photoluminescence (PL) properties of ZnO films prepared by reaction water and zinc. Temperature-dependent PL characteristics have been investigated in range from 15 to 260 K. spectrum at K is dominated neutral donor-bound exciton (D0X) emissions. emission line about 3.304 eV can be due transition free electrons acceptor states (eA0). It suggested that ultraviolet room temperature attributed incorporation eA0 (FX) transitions, rather than sole FX. According behavior green band, it further confirmed mainly related singly ionized oxygen vacancies.
