Abstract

Indium doped zinc oxide films have been deposited from diethyl zinc, ethanol and trimethyl indium in the temperature range between 225°C and 450°C in a laminar flow atmospheric chemical vapor deposition reactor. Both doped and undoped films were crystalline. The doped films have electron density up to 9×1020 cm-3, conductivity up to 850 Ω-1cm-1, and mobility up to 8 cm2/Vs. The indium doping increases the average visible absorption from less than 1% to above 20%. The transparency and conductivity of indium doped zinc oxide films are lower than those of fluorine doped films.
