摘要
Transparent conductive indium zinc oxide thin films were prepared by spin-coating a sol-gel solution. Zinc acetate dihydrate [Zn(CH3COO)(2) center dot 2H(2)O] and indium acetate [In(CH3COO)(3)] were used as starting precursors, and 2-methoxyethanol with 1-propanol as solvents. Upon annealing in a temperature range from 500 to 1000 degrees C, the thin film crystallizes into polycrystalline In2O3(ZnO). The lowest electrical resistivity was obtained at an annealing temperature of 700 degrees C as 2 Omega center dot cm. Average optical transmittances were higher than 80% at all annealing temperatures. These experimental results confirm that the sol-gel spin-coating can be a good simplified practical method for forming transparent electrodes.
