| Abstract |
Photoluminescence from epitaxial ZnO thin films deposited on R-plane sapphire substrates by RF
magnetron sputtering was investigated. The intensity of the near band emission (NBE) of the ZnO
thin film on R-plane sapphire was stronger than that of the film formed on C-plane sapphire at a low
temperature. Some experimental results suggest that NBE depends on the polarization of the
excitation light, which are considered to be related to the ZnO crystal orientation on the sapphire
substrate. |
