Popis: | High temperature electrical conductivity (HTEC) as a function of time after step-like change of Zn vapor pressure (PZn) at fixed ZnO crystal temperature (TZnO) and after step-like change of TZnO at fixed PZn was measured in undoped ZnO single crystal and in undoped ZnO ceramic sample. It was found a difference on HTEC relaxation curves in these measurements. Samples were cooled from temperature 1273 K to room temperature. Appearance of asymmetric spectrum with g≈1.96 and disappearance of Mn2+ spectrum were detected in EPR investigations. Then vacuum annealing was applied for these samples and intensity of g≈1.96 EPR spectrum was registered after every vacuum annealing cycles. The change in sample color, the change in g≈1.96 spectrum intensity as well as appearance again of Mn2+ EPR spectrum in the course of vacuum annealing was explained by the model of defect clusters formed during cooling of the crystal.
