摘要
It has been difficult to deposit high quality indium tin oxide (ITO) films on to substrates at low temperature (below 100 degrees C) or subjected to post-deposition annealing. We have developed a new process based on O-2 cluster ion assisted deposition of metallic indium and carried out deposition of high quality indium oxide films. At optimized indium deposition rate, a film with resistivity of 4.7 x 10(-4) Omega cm and transparency of 80% for the wavelength of 550 nm, has been deposited at room temperature on to soda lime slide glass substrates. A wide process window of indium deposition rate has also been observed. This indicates that a reproducible and stable process is obtained with this new technique. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science S.A.
