In this article, the authors examined the spectra of stoichiometric and oxygen-deficient ZnO films grown on sapphire and found that the green and yellow emissions depend on the width of the free-carrier depletion region at the particle surface; the thinner the width, the larger the intensity.Abstract:
Photoluminescence and cathodoluminescence (CL) spectra of stoichiometric and oxygen-deficient ZnO films grown on sapphire were examined. It was found that the intensities of the green and yellow emissions depend on the width of the free-carrier depletion region at the particle surface; the thinner the width, the larger the intensity. Experimental results and spectral analyses suggest that the mechanism responsible for the green (yellow) emission is the recombination of a delocalized electron close to the conduction band with a deeply trapped hole in the single ionized oxygen vacancy Vo+ (the single negatively charged interstitial oxygen ion Oi−) center in the particle.read more

TL;DR: The large built-in electric field of the NiO/ZnO heterojunction with the increased Fermi level of ZnO NRs provide a strong driving force to separate and transfer the photo-generated carriers, decrease the recombination of the carriers and then improve the photoresponse performance of heterojunctions devices without external bias.

Correlation between photoluminescence and oxygen vacancies in ZnO phosphors
TL;DR: By combining electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), optical absorption, and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, a strong correlation is observed between the green 510 nm emission, the free-carrier concentration, and the density of singly ionized oxygen vacancies in commercial ZnO phosphor powders as mentioned in this paper.

Luminescent Transitions Associated With Divalent Copper Impurities and the Green Emission from Semiconducting Zinc Oxide
TL;DR: In this paper, the role of deep acceptor states in electronic processes in covalent solids was investigated and it was found that the transition is an optical charge transfer between a highly shielded localized level of the copper impurity and a level which is strongly perturbed by the valence-band states of the crystal.
