“…It is, thus, important to explore other facile fabrication methods to overcome some of these challenges, and we, therefore, explored the fabrication of ZnO thin films using the molecular precursor method (MPM), which is a wet chemical process for the preparation of metal oxide thin films [29,30]. MPM, unlike the sol-gel method, is based on the use of metal complexes in coating solutions that are known to have excellent stability, homogeneity, and miscibility, owing to the metal complex anions which have better stability and can be dissolved in volatile solvents by combining them with the appropriate alkylamines [31].…”
