Abstract
ZnO semiconductor oxides are versatile functional materials that are used in photoelectronics, catalysis, sensing, etc. The Zn+-O- surface electronic states of semiconductor oxides were formed on the ZnO surface by Zn 4s and O 2p orbital coupling with the diboron compound's B 2p orbitals. The formation of spin-coupled surface states was based on the spin-orbit interaction on the interface, which has not been reported before. This shows that the semiconductor oxide's spin surface states can be modulated by regulating surface orbital energy. The Zn+-O- surface electronic states were confirmed by electron spin resonance results, which may help in expanding the fundamental research on spintronics modulation and quantum transport.
