Photo-electrical properties of thin ZnO:Al films

Abstract

Photo-electrical properties of ZnO and ZnO:Al thin film prepared by rf sputtering are investigated. The prepared samples exhibit a very wide change of sheet resistance within ten orders of magnitude depending on preparation procedure. A low value of doping independent mobility has been observed. An optical band gap shift towards higher energies is presented.
