摘 要:The effect of a second dopant on the magnetic property of Cu-doped ZnO by first-principles calculations based on the density functional theory was studied. It is found that the Cu-doped ZnO shows ferromagnetism due to the hybridization between Cu-3d and O-2p orbitals. When Na is introduced to the Cu-doped ZnO system, Cu cations tend to take on a bivalent state. Therefore, the magnetic moments on both Cu and coordinated oxygen sites increase due to Na doping. On the contrary, the magnetic moments decrease dramatically in the(Cu, Al) co-doped ZnO, which can be attributed to the fully occupied 3d states of Cu+ and O-2p states.
