Significant progress in the field of wide-gap dilute magnetic semiconductors (DMS) depends on the discovery of a material system which not only shows high-temperature ferromagnetism but is also simple to prepare and thus easy to reproduce. In this context; ion implantation is an attractive doping method; being both relatively simple and highly reproducible. Here; we report on the search for high-temperature ferromagnetism in ZnO and GaN implanted with Mn; Fe; and Co; prepared under a wide range of implantation and post-processing conditions. We focused on the low concentration regime (∼ 0.3 - 4 %) in order to avoid phase segregation and applied strict experimental procedures to avoid ferromagnetic contamination. Despite the wide range of materials; implantation and post-processing conditions; none of the DMS systems showed room-temperature ferromagnetism. These results support the view that dilute transition-metal moments do not order ferromagnetically in ZnO and GaN. © 2013 American Institute of Physics;
