摘要: Abstract Electrically induced crystallization (EIC) is a recently developed process for material modification. This study applied to EIC fabricate ZnO–Ti–Si multi-layer structures of various thicknesses dope Ti into ZnO thin film and form TiSi x intermetallic compound (IMC) in single step. The IMC layer was confirmed using transmission electron microscopy images. thickness more than 40 nm, which enhanced decreased the total electrical resistance structure. Finally, diffusion mechanisms annealing were investigated. shows that has potential industrial applications.
