ZnO homojunction light-emitting diodes (LEDs), comprised of N–Al codoped p-type ZnO and Al-doped n-type ZnO layers, were fabricated on Si substrates with homobuffer layers. The current-voltage measurements showed typical diode characteristic with a threshold voltage of about 3.3V. The electroluminescence (EL) bands at 110K consisted of a near-band-edge emission at 3.18eV and a deep level emission at 2.58eV. The EL emissions were assigned as radiative recombinations, presumably of donor-acceptor pairs, in the p-type layer of the LED. The quenching of EL with temperature was attributed to the degradation of p-type conducting of the ZnO:(N,Al) layer.
