This paper, Al-doped ZnO(AZO) thin films for application as transparent conducting oxide films were deposited on the Corning glass substrate by using RF magnetron sputtering system. The effects of various Argon gas flow rates on optical and electrical characteristics of AZO films were investigate sputtering method. The Carrier Concentration is enhanced as Ar gas rate increases, and also the oxygen vacancy concentration. The figure of merit obtained in this study means that AZO films which deposited Ar gas rate of 75 sccm have the highest Carrier concentration and Hall mobility, which have the highest photoelectrical performance that it could be used as transparent electrodes.
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.
