摘要：
Undoped ZnO, Nd doped ZnO (NZO), and Nd-F co-doped ZnO (NFZO) thin films were prepared at 350 A degrees C on glass substrates by chemical spray pyrolysis method. The effect of cationic and anionic elements (Nd and F) on the structural, optical and electrical properties was studied. X-ray diffraction analysis indicated that all the films were polycrystalline with hexagonal wurtzite crystal structure and that the nature of the doping atom has a strong influence on the preferential growth direction. No sensitive evolution of the band gap is observed upon doping. Photoluminescence measurements showed that all the films have a strong emission band at around 380 nm and that Nd ions are optically activated. In addition, energy transfer from the matrix to Nd3+ ions is demonstrated by excitation photoluminescence. Layers with electrical resistivity values as low as 4.0 x 10(-2) Omega cm were obtained.
