摘要
In this paper an exhaustive analysis is performed on the electrochemical corrosion resistance of Al-doped ZnO (AZO) layers deposited on silicon wafers by a DC pulsed magnetron sputtering deposition technique to test layer durability. Pulse frequency of the sputtering source was varied and a detailed study of the electrochemical corrosion response of samples in the presence of a corrosive chloride media (NaCl 0.06 M) was carried out. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements were performed after reaching a stable value of the open circuit at 2 h, 192 h and 480 h intervals. Correlation of the corrosion resistance properties with the morphology, and the optical and electrical properties was tested. AZO layers with transmission values higher than 84% and resistivity of 6.54 x 10(-4) Omega cm for a deposition process pressure of 3 x 10(-1) Pa, a sputtering power of 2 kW, a pulse frequency of 100 kHz, with optimum corrosion resistance properties, were obtained.
