Zinc oxide films were grown on sapphire substrates by direct current magnetron sputtering and irradiated by electrons with energy 10 MeV and fluences 1016 and 2 × 1016 cm-2. As-grown and irradiated samples were investigated by X-ray diffraction and photoluminescence spectroscopy. It was found that radiation causes the appearance of complex defects, reducing the size of coherent scattering regions and the increase of the defect PL band. |
