Calculation on Electronic Structure of ZnO with Impurities Belonging to III and IV Family

III, IV족 불순물이 첨가된 ZnO의 전자상태계산

The electronic structure of ZnO oxide semiconductor having high optical transparency and good electric conductivity was theoretically investigated by $DV-X_{\alpha}$(the discrete variation $X_{\alpha}$) method, which is a sort of the first principle molecular orbital method using Hatre-Fock-Slater approximation. The electrical and optical properties of ZnO are seriously affected by the addition of impurities. The imnurities are added to ZnO in order to increase the electric conductivity of an electrode without losing optical transparency. In this study, the effect of impurities of III and IV family on the band structure, impurity levels and the density of state of ZnO were investigated. The cluster model used for calculations was $[MZn_{50}O_{53}]^{-2}$(M=elements belonging to III and IV family).
