摘要
Transparent conducting indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films were prepared on glass substrates by a magnetron sputter type negative ion source which requires cesium (Cs) vapor injection for surface negative ionization on the ITO target surface. Although the film was prepared at 70 degrees C, it attained high optical transmittance, 88% and low resistivity, 2.03 x 10(-4) Omega cm, at an optimized Cs partial pressure of P-Cs = 1.7 x 10(-3) Pa. The as-deposited ITO films have a poly-crystalline structure with (2 11), (222), (400), (4 11) and (440) reflections. Also, ITO films prepared at Pc, = 1.7 x 10-3 Pa were post-deposition vacuum annealed at 300 degrees C for 30 min. The films had a resistivity Of 1.8 X 10-4 Omega cm and a transparency of 89.2%. The post-deposition vacuum annealed ITO film was used as an anode for a transparent organic light emitting diode (TOLED). A maximum luminance of 19,000 cd/m(2) was obtained.
