✦ Synopsis


Co-doped SnO 2 films codoped with nitrogen (N) have been prepared by magnetron sputtering to investigate the effect of p-type defects on magnetic properties. The incorporation of N modifies the preferential growth orientation of the films. Multiple characterization techniques reveal that the incorporated Co 2+ and N 3Γ€ ions substitute for Sn 4+ and O 2Γ€ sites in SnO 2 lattice, respectively. As N concentration increases, the band gap of the films decreases because of the formation of Sn-N bond. Room-temperature ferromagnetism is observed in (Co, N)-codoped SnO 2 films, and the saturated magnetic moment is sensitive to the incorporated N concentration. The variations in the magnetic properties as a function of N concentration are discussed on the basis of bound magnetic polaron model.
