“…In this work, stable and low resistive p-ZnO has been successfully achieved by dual acceptor doping of group-V elements P and N simultaneously in ZnO. This dual acceptor method is proposed to overcome the self-compensation effect in ZnO and also possess high hole concentration [17][18][19].

“…Majority of the common semiconductor photocatalysts are binary compounds of formula MX S , where S is a small number usually from 1 to 4. For a given MX S lattice, Schottky defect pair (Ti-O for example) may be formed via (Fan et al 2013). However, Zn interstitials and oxygen vacancies are known to be the predominant ionic defect types which in other words means the prevalence of Frenkel defects.…”

At the turn of 1970s, the photo-response of solid materials became a constant subject of intensive research for possible application in modern technologies. Heterogeneous photocatalysis has evolved in a unique way giving rise to various applications for alternative energy, organic synthesis and environmental treatment. Semiconducting compounds have thrived as the most suitable materials for these applications. Towards achieving the maximum potential benefits of semiconductor photocatalysis and to make remarkable impact, the fundamental concept as well as application has been extensively and rigorouslyexplored. We therefore detail herein the basic formalism of semiconductor photocatalysis from band models through the generation of oxidants to the light harvesting processes. The key imperfections in semiconductor oxides and their consequences on the extrinsic semiconductivity are outlined. The advances being made regarding the role of oxidising species in photocatalytic degradation are rationally discussed. Finally, the reader is referred to some 'must read' articles in heterogeneous photocatalysis by semiconductor solids.

“…CdO-ZnO thin films can be produced by several known technologies, such as chemical vapour deposition, "sol-gel" technique, laser ablation, radio-frequency and DC magnetron sputtering methods [9]- [14]. Each method has advantages and disad-vantages in terms of production procedures, equipment costs and resulting product properties; therefore, the development of new semiconductor production methods remains challenging.…”

The extraction-pyrolytic method has been applied to produce the ZnO and CdO-ZnO thin films on glass and quartz glass substrates. According to Xray diffraction measurements, the ZnO and CdO phases have been produced with an average size of crystallites about 8-42 nm in the films. The thickness of the layers measured by a profilometer has been up to 150 nm. The surface morphology measurements show that the surface of the films may be rough and non-continuous. The SEM results confirm the dependence between the preparation procedure and the quality of the thin film.
