Abstract The Ga2O3/ZnO multilayer films are deposited on quartz substrates by magnetron sputtering, the thickness values of Ga2O3 layers are in a range of 19 nm-2.5 nm and the thickness of ZnO layer is a constant of 1 nm. Formation of spinel ZnGa2O4 film is achieved via the annealing of the Ga2O3/ZnO multilayer film. The influences of original Ga2O3 sublayer thickness on the optical and structural properties of Ga2O3/ZnO multilayer films and annealed films are studied. With the decrease of the thickness of Ga2O3 sublayer, the optical band-gap of Ga2O3/ZnO multilayer film decreases, the intensity of UV emission diminishes and the intensity of violet emission increases. The annealed film displays the enlarged optical band gap and the quenched violet emission. UV fluorescence bands are observed from Ga2O3 and ZnGa2O4.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
