All films were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-Vis spectroscopy, scanning electron spectroscopy (SEM), and four-point probe. The films were 600-680 nm thick, crystalline, and highly transparent (80-87%). The co-doped film consisted of 0.70 at.% titanium and 1 at.% fluorine, and displayed a charger carrier mobility, charge carrier concentration, and a minimum resistivity of 8.4 cm2 V-1 s-1, 3.97 x 1020 cm-3, and 1.69 x 10-3 Ω cm, respectively. A band gap of 3.6 eV was observed for the co-doped film. Compared to the undoped and singly doped films, the co-doped film displayed a notably higher structure morphology (more homogenous grains with well-defined boundaries) suitable for transparent conducting oxide applications. date: 2024-04-09 date_type: published publisher: Wiley official_url: https://doi.org/10.1002/cplu.202400073 oa_status: green full_text_type: pub language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 2269369 doi: 10.1002/cplu.202400073 medium: Print-Electronic lyricists_name: Carmalt, Claire lyricists_id: CJCAR00 actors_name: Carmalt, Claire actors_name: Zahnhausen-Stuber, Petra actors_id: CJCAR00 actors_id: PMZAH20 actors_role: owner actors_role: impersonator full_text_status: public publication: Chempluschem article_number: e202400073 event_location: Germany issn: 2192-6506 citation: Ramzan, Iqra; Borowiec, Joanna; Parkin, Ivan; Carmalt, Claire J; (2024) Transparent Conductive Titanium and Fluorine Co-doped Zinc Oxide Films.
