The linear-polarization optical property of CdSe quantum rods is studied in the framework of effectivemass envelope function theory. The effects of shape and magnetic field on the linear polarization factors are investigated. It is found that CdSe quantum spheres have negative polarization factors （xy-polarized emission）and quantum long rods with small radius have positive linear polarization factors （z-polarized emission）. The z-direction is the direction of the c axis. Quantum long rods with large radius have negative linear polarization factors,due to the hexagonal crystal symmetry and the crystal field splitting energy. The linear polarization factors decrease and may change from a positive value to a negative value;i, e. ,the z-polarized emissions decrease relative to xy-polarized emissions as the magnetic field applied along the z direction increases.
This paper studies the electronic structure and native defects in transparent conducting oxides CuScO2 and CuYO2 using the first-principle calculations. Some typical native copper-related and oxygen-related defects, such as vacancy, interstitials, and antisites in their relevant charge state are considered. The results of calculation show that, CuMO2（M = Sc, Y） is impossible to show n-type conductivity ability. It finds that copper vacancy and oxygen interstitial have relatively low formation energy and they are the relevant defects in CuScO2 and CuYO2. Copper vacancy is the most efficient acceptor, and under O-rich condition oxygen antisite also becomes important acceptor and plays an important role in p-type conductivity.
