Transparent conductive oxide (TCO) thin films are highly desired as electrodes for modern flat-panel displays and solar cells. Alternative indium-free TCO materials needed, because of the scarcity high price indium. Based on mechanism resonant doping, Ta has been identified an effective dopant SnO2 to achieve transparent TCO. In this work, we fabricated a series Ta-doped (Sn1−xTaxO2, x = 0.001,...
