Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD) has proved to be a highly flexible technique for the epitaxy of high-quality ZnO thin films on c-, and a-plane sapphire substrates. A remarkable improvement of cathodoluminescence intensity at room temperature and homogeneous luminescence across the substrate (typically 10x10 mm2, presently up to 2No-dq) were achieved for heavily N-doped ZnO thin films with MgO buffer layer in comparison to nominally undoped ZnO. The N-doping level of the ZnO films was controlled by the N2 partial pressure during PLD growth. Clear correlation of maximum luminescence efficiency, and FWHM of excitonic emission peak at 300K to the nitrogen doping level was found. The N-doped ZnO films with highest luminescence intensity show n-type carrier concentration around 1019 cm−3.
