Redundant roles of four ZIP family members in zinc homeostasis and seed development in Arabidopsis thaliana

Zinc (Zn) is essential for normal plant growth and development. The Zn-regulated transporter, iron-regulated transporter (IRT)-like protein (ZIP) family members are involved in Zn transport and cellular Zn homeostasis throughout the domains of life. In this study, we have characterized four ZIP transporters from Arabidopsis thaliana (IRT3, ZIP4, ZIP6, and ZIP9) to better understand their functional roles. The four ZIP proteins can restore the growth defect of a yeast Zn uptake mutant and are upregulated under Zn deficiency. Single and double mutants show no phenotypes under Zn-sufficient or Zn-limited growth conditions. In contrast, triple and quadruple mutants show impaired growth irrespective of external Zn supply due to reduced Zn translocation from root to shoot. All four ZIP genes are highly expressed during seed development, and siliques from all single and higher-order mutants exhibited an increased number of abnormal seeds and decreased Zn levels in mature seeds relative to wild type. The seed phenotypes could be reversed by supplementing the soil with Zn. Finally, our data demonstrate that IRT3, ZIP4, ZIP6, and ZIP9 function redundantly in maintaining Zn homeostasis and seed development in A. thaliana.

Metalorganic chemical vapor deposition of ZnGeN 2 films on GaN: effects of cation stoichiometry on surface morphology and crystallinity

Novel optoelectronic device designs based on the heterostructures of III-N and II-IV-N 2 are promising to advance device performance significantly. For example, by utilizing InGaN-ZnGeN 2 quantum well (QW) structures instead of pure InGaN, the band structure engineering in the QW active region can lead to improved electron-hole wavefunction overlap, and thus enhance the radiative efficiency for photon generation. These novel heterostructures have great potential to address the current challenge of low quantum efficiency in InGaN QW based light emitting diodes emitting in green and beyond. The materials development of ZnGeN 2 is still at an early stage as compared to the much matured GaN material system. In an ideal octet rule preserving ordered structure of ZnGeN 2 , every N atom is coordinated by exactly two Zn and two Ge atoms. However, local violation of octet rule can be caused by non-ideal coordination of N by the cations. The disordered structure is thermodynamically less favorable but can still be achieved, for example, in kinetics-limited growth regime. The ordered ZnGeN 2 has a bandgap very close to that of GaN (~3.4 eV) and a lattice mismatch of <0.1% with GaN. Interestingly, the valence band of ZnGeN 2 has been predicted to be ~1 eV above that of GaN, which has inspired novel designs for high efficiency light emitters. In this work, we investigated the metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) of ZnGeN 2 films on GaN/c-sapphire templates. Diethylzinc (DEZn), germane (GeH4) and ammonia were used as the precursors for Zn, Ge and N, respectively. A systematic study was conducted to investigate the cation stoichiometry as a function of growth temperature (TG), total reactor pressure (P) and DEZn/GeH 4 molar flow rate ratio (RII/IV). Under the investigated growth window, the Zn/(Zn+Ge) composition in the films, determined from energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, decreased monotonically with increase in TG but increased with increase in P and RII/IV. Atom probe tomography data did not indicate the presence of any secondary phases such as Zn 3 N 2 or Ge 3 N 4 . The surface morphology and crystallinity of the grown films had strong correlation with the Zn/(Zn+Ge) composition. The scanning electron microscopy images showed that the near-stoichiometric films have planar surfaces whereas Zn-rich films had crystallites on their surface and the Zn-poor films had faceted surface. Scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) imaging revealed that the Zn-rich and Zn-poor films have columnar and filament-like morphology, respectively, whereas the near-stoichiometric films have continuous film-like cross-sectional morphology. TEM nano-diffraction patterns as well as X-ray diffraction 2θ-ω scan profiles indicate that the near stoichiometric films are single crystalline. Nano-diffraction pattern of the stoichiometric films resembled that of a disordered ZnGeN 2 structure. Room temperature Raman spectra of near-stoichiometric films showed only the phonon density of states like features of a cation disordered ZnGeN 2 . Cathodoluminescence and photoluminescence spectra measured at different temperatures had similar features with peak emission wavelength at ~ 2 eV. In conclusion, the stoichiometry of ZnGeN 2 films can be widely tuned by tuning the MOCVD growth parameters. The surface morphology and the crystallinity of the films were found to have strong correlation with the Zn/(Zn+Ge) composition. The stoichiometric ZnGeN 2 films grown on GaN were demonstrated with uniform surface morphology and high crystalline quality. The results from this work will provide pathway to implement ZnGeN 2 in device structures.
