High resistivity (≥1 kΩ cm) hydrothermally grown single crystal ZnO wafers were modified by hydrogen implantation. The implantation has been performed with multiple energies in order to form a box‐like profile with a depth of 4 μm and two different concentrations of 8 × 10 17 H/cm 3 and 1.5 × 10 18 H/ cm 3 . A subsequent annealing at 200 °C for 30 min in N 2 resulted in the formation of a highly conductive layer. Pd con‐ tacts deposited on the implanted side showed rectifying behaviour by up to three orders of magnitude. However by capacitance vs. voltage ( C – V ) technique a carrier concentration significantly lower than the one expected according to the implanted H content was measured suggesting the presence of a high density of compensating centers and/or an incomplete activation of H as a donor.
