초록

We have investigated the structural, electrical and optical properties of Ga-doped ZnO (GZO) thin films prepared by RF magnetron sputtering with laboratory-made ZnO targets containing 1, 3, 5, 7 wt% of $Ga_2O_3$ powder as a doping source. The GZO thin films show the typical crystallographic orientation with c-axis regardless of $Ga_2O_3$ content in the targets. The $3,000{\AA}$ thick GZO thin films with the lowest resistivity of $7{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ are obtained by using the GZO ($Ga_2O_3$= 5 wt%) target. Optical transmittance of all films shows higher than 80% at the visible region. The optical energy band gap for GZO films increases as the carrier concentration ($n_e$) in the film increases.
