Abstract

ZnO thin films were deposited on glass substrates by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) at various oxygen pressures. We observed structural, electrical and optical properties of ZnO films. Structural properties were analysed by XRD and FE-SEM. Electrical properties for applications of transparent thin film transistors (TTFTs) were measured by hall measurement using van der pauw methods at room temperature. In order to apply in transparent devices, we measured transmittance, and optical bandgap energy was calculated by Tauc's equation. The results showed that ZnO films deposited at 200mTorr oxygen pressure were applicable to channel layers of transparent TFTs. It had high hall mobilities ($52.92cm^2$/V-s) and suitable transmittance at visible wavelength region (above 80%).
