Abstract
A method for producing a p-type ZnO based compound semiconductor layer is provided. The method comprises the steps of (a) preparing an n-type single crystal ZnO based compound semiconductor structure containing a Group 11 element which is Cu and/or Ag and at least one Group 13 element selected from the group consisting of B, Ga, Al, and In, and (b) annealing the n-type single crystal ZnO based compound semiconductor structure to form the p-type ZnO based compound semiconductor layer co-doped with the Group 11 element and the Group 13 element.
