O alloy films are important deep ultraviolet photoelectric materials. In this work, we used plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy to prepare Zn1–x

High-resolution transmission electron microscopy images revealed cubic phases without visible hexagonal phases for the alloy films with more than 70% magnesium, and the cubic phases exhibited three-fold and two-fold rotations for the alloy films on the polar (0001) and nonpolar (
