- Abstract
- Transparent conducting Al-doped ZnO films were deposited by atomic layer deposition with various of Al doping concentrations. In order to explain the change in resistivity of Al-doped ZnO films depending on Al doping concentration, we investigated the correlations between the conducting property and electronic structure in terms of atomic configuration, the evolution of the conduction band and band gap, and band alignments (conduction band offset between minimum of conduction band and Fermi level, Delta E-CB). ZnO film Al-doped at similar to 3 at% and deposited at 250 degrees C showed the lowest resistivity, which resulted in changes in the conduction band of insulating Al2O3 film, and increases in the band gap and conduction band offset (Delta E-CB).
