The magnetization measurements showed appearance of ferromagnetism after oxygen implantation and its disappearance during post-implantation annealing at above 573 K. The Doppler broadening of annihilation radiation (DBAR) spectrum showed asymmetry upon field reversal after the oxygen-implantation. The obtained differential DBAR spectrum between positive and negative magnetic fields was well-explained with a theoretical calculation considering zinc vacancies. The disappearance of field reversal asymmetry of DBAR spectrum by annealing agreed with that of ferromagnetism observed by magnetization measurements. These suggest that the radiation-induced zinc vacancies are the source for the observed ferromagnetism of ZnO.}, pages = {172402-1--172402-5}, title = {Vacancy-induced ferromagnetism in ZnO probed by spin-polarized positron annihilation spectroscopy}, volume = {110}, year = {2017} }
