In this study, we report structural, morphological and optical properties of Fe-doped SnO2 thin layers. Fe doping concentration has evaluated from 0 to 0.6 wt.%. XRD and SEM results revealed a polycrystalline structure for Fe-doped SnO2 thin layers. The optical transmittance of all thin layers displayed high transparency reach to 80% in the visible region. The optical gap of these layers decreases from 3.87 to 3.58 eV. The grain sizes decrease from 35 to 30 nm. The electrical resistivity of layers increases from 1.2×10-2 to 6.8×10-2 Ω.cm.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
