WET CHEMICAL GROWTH OF ONE DIMENSIONAL ZnO FILM

Abstract

The present work focuses on the growth of ZnO films vertically on indium tin oxide substrate using a wet chemical method. The morphological and structural study of the prepared films confirmed the formation of one-dimensional growth with a polycrystalline single-phase hexagonal wurtzite structure. The computed texture coefficient indicates the c-axis growth of the film. The optical spectra study exhibited a strong and sharp characteristics absorption band. The numerical derivative method and the Tauc plot method for the different transition values have been used to compare energy bandgap calculations.
