Raman scattering studies in dilute magnetic semiconductorZn1xCoxO

Abstract: Raman spectra of ZnO and Co substituted Zn 1−x Co x O ͑ZCO͒ were carried out using the Raman microprobe system with an Ar + ion laser source of 514.5 nm wavelength. The shift towards the lower frequency side of the nonpolar E 2 low mode and the broadening due to Co substitution in ZnO were analyzed using the phonon confinement model. The magnetic measurements showed ferromagnetic behavior with the maximum saturation magnetization ͑1.2 B /Co͒ for 10% Co substitution, which decreased with at further increase in … Show more

“…The peaks in the range of 780-1,000 cm -1 are mainly due to the ZnO and impurity phases of V doping. In lower wave number region, the peak at 330 cm -1 corresponds to transverse optical (TO) phonons of A 1 mode which is second order Raman mode (Samanta et al 2006). Some defects like oxygen vacancies, Zn interstitials give rise to A 1 mode.…”

“…The weak and broad phonon modes at 330, 380 and 585 cm −1 are also observed in Fig. 3 which corresponds to multiphonon mode; M (2E 2 ), 26 A 1 (TO) 26 and E 1 (LO) 27 respectively. The Raman modes corresponding to the sapphire substrate are marked by 'S' in Fig.…”

“…It is widely believed that the secondary crystal phases can be expected for ZnO containing at least 5% of Co. The presence of such precipitates as Co or CoO has been found in bulk samples (x = 0.05 [7]), various cobalt oxides or cobalt spinel have been found or suggested in selected mixed crystal layers (x > 0.05 [8]). Several local vibrational modes (LVMs) corresponding to sharp structures in the Raman spectra are expected for a TM impurity occupying a substitutional site in the crystal lattice (see, e.g., [9,10]).…”
