摘要: Abstract The comprehensive investigation results of the influence ZnO thin films deposition parameters on their structure, mechanical and optical properties are presented in paper. Zinc oxide layers were prepared using atomic layer (ALD) method. For evaluation morphology structure films, both scanning transmission electron microscopy was used. Transparency test carried out UV/VIS spectroscopy. concentration particular elements calculated from XPS measurements. Chemical analysis extended to measurements micro nanostructure with use TOF-SIMS spectrometry. Oliver-Pharr method used measure instrumental hardness, while scratch performed study adhesion surface. uniform investigated coatings without any visible delamination observed. Despite very low thickness, demonstrated a good substrate. showed that temperature ALD process significantly affects transparency films. number cycles is also crucial regarding transparency.
