The intense luminescence of zinc oxide (ZnO) is usually dominated by transitions of donor bound excitons. The identity of the respective causing donors is in the most cases unknown, but a clear identification can be achieved using radioactive dopants, which undergo an element transition upon decay. Thus, luminescence lines, which vary their intensities with the specific half-life of the respective isotope with increasing measuring time, can be unambiguous assigned to specific elements. We have implanted radioactive 111In with an ion energy of 400 keV into ZnO single crystals. The isotope 111In decays into stable 111Cd with an half-time of 2,8 days; thus, an element transition from a donor to an isoelectronic element within the ZnO crystal occurs upon time. The annealing process (in air,700∘C) was monitored by perturbed angular-γγ-spectroscopy (PAC). The samples were characterised by photoluminescence spectroscopy over a time period of 3 weeks. The obtained results together with additional ion implantation studies with stable 115In and varying ion fluences will be discussed.
