Optical and magneto-optical properties of ZnCoO films grown at low temperature by Atomic Layer Deposition are discussed. Strong wide band absorption, with onset at about 2.4 eV, is observed in ZnCoO in addition to Co-related intra-shell transitions. This absorption band is related to Co 2+ to 3+ photo-ionization transition. A strong photoluminescence (PL) quenching is observed, which we relate to Co recharging in ZnO lattice. Mechanisms of PL quenching are discussed.
