“…Ga-doped ZnO (GZO) exhibits significant promise for diverse optoelectronic applications owing to its advantageous characteristics, including high carrier concentration, electrical conductivity, controllable photoelectric properties, and superior photodetection properties compared to pure ZnO. − GZO films have been widely used in various applications, such as LEDs, solar cells (SCs), memristors, and sensors . However, advances in GZO-based devices have been delayed by the complexity of understanding and evaluating the optoelectrical behavior of intrinsic defects such as Ga interstitial (Ga i ), Ga substitute for Zn (Ga Zn ), GaO x suboxides, oxygen vacancy ( V O ), zinc interstitial (Zn i ), zinc vacancy ( V Zn ), and their complexes. , Researchers aimed to manipulate the defects using various approaches.…”
