ZnO thin film were deposited by spray pyrolysis on glass substrates, using zinc nitrate as precursor with different molar concentrations varying from 0.05M to 0.2 M. To study the structural proprieties of the film , the different technique was used as the X-ray diffraction, atomic force microscopy (AFM), Raman scattering , and FTIR. The optical properties were explored by transmission, reflectivity and Photoluminescence techniques. The ZnO thin films obtained in this paper are polycrystallines, the grain size increases when the molar concentration of Zn precursor was increasing. The films are transparent in visible region, this transmission values decreases when the molar concentration increase caused by the increasing of surface roughness
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.
