Abstract
The bandgap of a series of oxide semiconductors is narrowed by a quick and facile arc-melting method. A defective structure is formed in the fast melting and cooling process without changing its phase structure. Enhanced optical and electrical properties are found in the arc-melted oxide, such as enhanced photocatalytic properties of the arc-melted ZnO under visible light.Entities:
