Effect of substrate bias voltage on the morphology of ITiO thin film

ITiO 박막의 morphology에 미치는 기판바이어스 전압 효과

In this paper, in order to obtain the excellent transparent conducting film with low resistivity and high optical transmittance for dye sensitized solar cell, ITiO thin films were deposited on Corning glass substrate by rf magnetron sputtering method. The effects of the discharge power and gas pressure on the electrical and optical properties were investigated experimentally. Particularly in order to lower the electrical resistivity, the effect of heat treatment and bias voltage on the morphological properties of ITiO thin film were also studied and discussed. The concentration ratio (%) for In, Ti, and O was 27 : 2 : 42. The electrical resistivity of $2{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ and 90% of optical transmittance were obtained under the conditions of 5mTorr of gas pressure, 300W of discharge power, $300^{\circ}C$ of substrate temperature.
