摘要
Room temperature ferromagnetism with p-Lype conductivity was observed in epitaxial K-doped ZnO films prepared by RF-magnetron sputtering. The coincident changes in the electrical, optical and magnetic properties indicate that the cation holes play important roles in mediating the ferromagnetism in K-doped ZnO films. The maximum saturation magnetization of 8 emu/cm(3) was obtained in the 8% K-doped film and the thermal annealing in air could stabilize the ferromagnetic signature. Finally, first-principle calculations reveal that the magnetic properties in K-doped ZnO films are attributed to the strong p-p interaction between the unpaired 2p electrons at O sites.
