Abstract

Zn1-xMgxO thin films are epitaxially grown on (1 1 1) Si substrates using intervening epitaxial Lu2O3 buffer layers by pulsed laser deposition. Lu2O3 buffer layer on Si substrate is essential to the Zn1-xMgxO epitaxial growth. X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy and photoluminescence measurements reveal that the Zn1-xMgxO films have high quality structural and optical properties. The films with thickness of 650 nm have a resistivity of 4.18 Ω cm, a Hall mobility of 16.97 cm2 V-1 s-1, and an electron concentration of 8.80 × 1016 cm-3 at room temperature.
