We have studied the photoluminescence emission line at 3.31 eV in ZnO nanowires. In undoped ZnO, this band strongly depends on high oxygen concentration and could originate from recombination of bound-exciton complex related to structural defects. Conversely, in doped ones, the photoluminescence emission appears notably at a low VI/II ratio and with the emergence of donor-acceptor pair emission due to the presence of α-No nitrogen complex, which acts as a shallow acceptor in ZnO. We found that this band corresponds to 3LO, the third phonon replica of resonant Raman scattering. Furthermore, a remarkable variation is detected in a number of resonant Raman scattering multiphonons.
