Optical and Electrical Properties of (002)-Oriented ZnO Films Prepared on Amorphous Substrates by Sol-Gel Spin-Coating

Zinc oxide (ZnO) films were prepared on amorphous quartz substrates by sol-gel spin-coating using Zn(CH3COO)2•2H2O precursor. Isopropanol, ethanol and 2-methoxyethanol were used as solvents. The film drying temperature was kept constant at 200 ºC and the annealing temperature was varied from 400 to...

description Zinc oxide (ZnO) films were prepared on amorphous quartz substrates by sol-gel spin-coating using Zn(CH3COO)2•2H2O precursor. Isopropanol, ethanol and 2-methoxyethanol were used as solvents. The film drying temperature was kept constant at 200 ºC and the annealing temperature was varied from 400 to 800 ºC. Highly transparent and (002)-oriented hexagonal wurtzite-type ZnO films were obtained using isopropanol solvent. The ZnO films prepared at Tanneal = 600 ºC showed the highest (002) preferential orientation, however it was not the significant feature to achieve low resistivity. The uniform and (002)-oriented ZnO films prepared at Tanneal = 400 ºC display the highest transmittance (>93% in the visible region) and the lowest resistivity (7.1 Ω•cm).
