  • The electronic structures of pure ZnS, N-doped and Al-N codoped zinc-blende ZnS were calculated by using first-principles ultrasoft pseudo-potential approach of the planar wave based upon the density functional theory, and the band structure, density of states and Mulliken charge population were studied. The calculated results revealed that N-doped ZnS caused formation of deep N acceptor levels in the band gap and the carriers (hole) which were provided by N 2p states were localized near the top of the valence band. But the codoping calculation revealed that the acceptor levels showed broadening and non-localizing, and the concentration of impurities, the stability of the system were enhanced. Our calculations indicate that codoping of Al and N is in more favor of the formation of p-type ZnS.
