“…(1) For these same advantages PEC-VD has recently been extended to the synthesis of numerous metal oxide thin films including advanced dielectrics (Ta 2 O 5 , (2) HfO 2 , (3,4) ZrO 2 , (5,6) Ga 2 O 3 , (7) ), electrochromics (WO 3 , (8,9) V 2 O 5 (10,11) ), transparent conductors (SnO 2 , (12,13) ZnO (14,15) ), optical coatings (Al 2 O 3 , (16,17) TiO 2 (18) ), and complex oxides (yittria-stabilized zirconia, (19,20) BaTiO 3 , (21) SrTiO 3 (20,22) ). For the most part the efforts to date have been experimental, focused on intrinsic film properties and relationships to device performance.…”
