We have studied the low-lying level schemes of 18,19,20,21O and the β--decay branching ratios of nitrogen isotope. The shell-model calculations have been carried out in the psd shell space. The results are compared with the recent experimental data with reasonable agreement. Our calculations also predict the β--decay property of 21N and the structure of 21O.
