TRANSPARENT ZINC OXIDE THIN FILMS PREPARED BY PLD WITH DIFFERENT OXYGEN PRESSURES
ZnO thin films were prepared on silicon (001) and corning glass substrates using Pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique with different oxygen pressures. The microstructure, crystallinity, and resistivity of the films depend on the oxygen pressure used. The effects of the films grown at room temperature and at 500°C with different oxygen pressures have been investigated by analyzing the optical and electrical properties of the film. The XRD analysis showed that the high intensity of c-axis orientation of ZnO thin films was obtained under high oxygen pressure and this leads to greater electrical and optical properties. By applying high pressure oxygen, the resistivity value was decreased and optical transmittance became higher in the visible region. The surface morphology of the films showed that the smooth surface was observed without any cracks.
