The desire for develo** ultraviolet optoelectronic devices has prompted extensive studies
toward wide-bandgap semiconductor ZnO and its related alloys. Bandgap engineering as …

We have performed a first-principles study to evaluate the electronic and optical properties
of wurtzite Zn 1− x Cd x O up to x= 0.25⁠. We have employed the Perdew–Burke–Ernzerhof …

With the increasing attention devoted to ZnO in the late nineties, the discovery of ZnCdO as
a means of reducing its bandgap towards visible wavelengths promised it a bright future in …

Transparent indium-doped cadmium oxide (In-CdO) thin films were deposited on quartz
glass substrates by pulse laser deposition (PLD) from ablating Cd–In metallic target at a …

The phase stabilities and structural and electronic properties of three zinc-based oxide alloy
systems (Ca x Zn 1− x O, Cd x Zn 1− x O and Mg x Zn 1− x O) are studied by first-principle …

We have synthesized Cd x Zn 1− x O alloys across the full composition range. The structural
mismatch of the two endpoint compounds splits the alloy into two regions of distinct optical …

ZnCdO thin films with different Cd contents have been deposited on quartz substrate by
pulsed laser deposition. All the obtained films have a hexagonal wurtzite ZnO structure with …

The valence band offsets (ΔEV) of Zn1− xMgxO/ZnO heterojunctions grown by plasma-
assisted molecular beam epitaxy were measured by photoelectron spectroscopy. From the …

Abstract The nanostructure Ni-doped CdO films have been prepared by sol gel spin coating
method. Atomic force microscopy results indicate that the CdO films are formed from the …

Band gap variations in thin film structures, across grain boundaries, and in embedded
nanoparticles are of increasing interest in the materials science community. As many …
