Investigation of the Effects of Rapid Thermal Annealing on the Electron Transport Mechanism in Nitrogen-Doped ZnO Thin Films Grown by RF Magnetron Sputtering

Nitrogen-doped ZnO (ZnO:N) thin films, deposited on Si(100) substrates by RF magnetron sputtering in a gas mixture of argon, oxygen, and nitrogen at different ratios followed by Rapid Thermal Annealing (RTA) at 400 °C and 550 °C, were studied in the present work. Raman and photoluminescence spectros...
