Ga DOPED ZnO THIN FILMS DEPOSITED BY RF MAGNETRON SPUTTERING – PREPARATION AND PROPERTIES
نویسندگان
چکیده
Gallium doped zinc oxide, GZO, thin films have been deposited onto glass substrate by rf magnetron sputtering at various substrate temperatures. The electrical and optical properties of the thin films have been studied as a function of substrate temperature. X-ray diffraction was used in order to investigate thin film structures. The thin film structure was stabilised by heating the samples in air at 423K. The best electrical conductivity and transmittance of GZO thin films was obtained when the substrate temperature was 473K.

Effects of Deposition Temperature on the Properties of ZnO Films Grown by High Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering
Thin film of zinc oxide (ZnO) has widely applied in many devices, such as solar cells[1], photoelectric devices[2], ferroelectric devices[3] owing to two most important properties: the direct wide bandgap of 3.37 eV at room temperature[4], and the large exciton binding energy of 60 meV[5]. As reported in the literature, the ZnO thin films have been prepared by various techniques, such as sol-ge...

متن کاملTransparent Conductive Oxide Thin Films
Transparent conductive oxides (TCO) have high optical transmission at visible wavelengths and electrical conductivity close to that of metals. They also reflect near infrared and infrared (i.e., heat) wavelengths, and are used in products ranging from energy efficient low-e windows to photovoltaics. One of their most important uses is for transparent electrical contacts. Virtually all applicati...
