Abstract

âº We investigate the possible complexes in Be-N codoped ZnO by first principle calculation. âº The Be-N codoping method can be used in fabrication of p-type ZnO. âº The source of p-type conductivity is Bei-3NO, not 4BeZn-NO. âº The transition energy of Bei-3NO is very low due to the impurity band caused by the Bei-2NO passive complex.
