摘要
High quality Zn0.95Co0.05O films with good reproducibility have been prepared by radio-frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering at various preparation conditions. These films were characterized by using x-ray diffraction, electrical transport, and magnetization measurements. The effect of the defects on the structural, magnetic, and electrical properties has been systematically investigated. It was found that the magnetization of Zn0.95Co0.05O films increases with increasing defects, whereas the resistivity decreases with increasing defects. The observed correlation between the magnetization, carrier concentration, and defects demonstrated the effect of the defects in controlling the magnetic and electrical properties in Zn0.95Co0.05O films. This also indicated that the magnetic and electrical properties of Zn0.95Co0.05O films can be tuned by defect engineering.
