摘要
Transparent conductive At doped ZnO thin films were prepared on glass and polymer substrates by unipolar pulsed d.c. co-CFUBM (Closed Field Unbalanced Magnetron) sputtering at ZnO and At targets without introducing any oxygen at room temperature. The lowest resistivity of 1.2 m Omega cm as well as the transmittance of above 84% was obtained by controlling working pressure. But the resistivity is slightly increased up to 6.8 m Omega cm with time passing due to the unstable microstructure caused by the low temperature process. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
