The discovery of ferromagnetism (FM) in wide band-gap semiconductors doped with transition metals (TM), known as DMSs, has attracted much interest. Among DMSs, the system of Mn-doped ZnO is considered as the most promising candidates. This paper focuses primarily on the recent progress in the experimental studies of ZnO:Mn DMSs.

The discovery of ferromagnetism (FM) in wide band-gap semiconductors doped with transition metals (TM), known as diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMSs), has attracted much interest. These materials are applicable to spin-based optoelectronic devices working at room temperature (RT). Among DMSs, the system of Co-doped ZnO is considered as the most promising candidate, which was expected to robust magnetism. This paper focuses primarily on the recent progress in the experimental studies of ZnO:Co DMSs. The magnetic properties and possible mechanism of ZnO:Co DMSs prepared by different methods are summarized and reviewed.

ABSTRACTWe propose a materials design to fabricate the transparent and half-metallic ferromagnets in V-, Cr-, Mn+hole, Fe-, Co-, and Ni-doped ZnO based upon ab initio electronic structure calculation. Mn-doped ZnO is anti-ferromagnetic spin glass state, however, it becomes half-metallic ferromagnets upon hole doping. The ferromagnetic state becomes more stable by electron doping in Fe-, Co- or Ni-doped ZnO. From the point of practical applications, it is feasible to realize the half-metallic ferromagnets with high Curie temperature, because n-type ZnO is easily available. We propose the design of new functional devices, such as spin-FET, photo-induced ferromagnets, and spin-injection devices using negative electron affinity in the wide band gap semiconductors.
