Al-Doped ZnO Monolayer as a Promising Transparent Electrode Material: A First-Principles Study
Al-doped ZnO has attracted much attention as a transparent electrode. The graphene-like ZnO monolayer as a two-dimensional nanostructure material shows exceptional properties compared to bulk ZnO. Here, through first-principle calculations, we found that the transparency in the visible light region of Al-doped ZnO monolayer is significantly enhanced compared to the bulk counterpart. In particul...
متن کاملFirst-principles study on La-doped ZnO used as transparent electrode for optoelectronic device
A systematic study on electronic and optical properties of wurtzite zinc oxide (ZnO) with different Ladoping concentrations has been performed. The calculations are based on the first principles planewave pseudopotential method with the density functional theory (DFT) and the generalized gradient approximation (GGA). According to the results, the band gap of ZnO is broadened due to the increase...
متن کاملComparative Study on ZnO Monolayer Doped with Al, Ga and In Atoms as Transparent Electrodes
Transparent anodes are indispensable components for optoelectronic devices. Two-dimensional (2D) materials are attracting increasing research interest due to their unique properties and promising applications. In order to design novel transparent anodes, we investigated the electronic, optical, and electrical properties of 2D ZnO monolayers doped with Al, Ga, and In using the first-principles c...
متن کاملNanostructured ZnO as a solution-processable transparent electrode material for low-cost photovoltaics
A critical part of thin-film composite solar cells is conduction through the transparent electrode. Currently the material of choice for the window electrode is indium tin oxide (ITO). The natural abundance of indium however is insufficient for highvolume production of solar cells. Moreover, good quality ITO is made by expensive vapor-deposition processes. We propose to develop nanostructured d...
متن کاملComparative studies of Al-doped ZnO and Ga-doped ZnO transparent conducting oxide thin films
We have investigated the influences of aluminum and gallium dopants (0 to 2.0 mol%) on zinc oxide (ZnO) thin films regarding crystallization and electrical and optical properties for application in transparent conducting oxide devices. Al- and Ga-doped ZnO thin films were deposited on glass substrates (corning 1737) by sol-gel spin-coating process. As a starting material, AlCl3⋅6H2O, Ga(NO3)2, ...
