摘要: Polycrystalline tin-doped indium oxide (ITO) thin films were prepared by Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD) with an ITO (In\(_2\)O\(_3\)-10 wt.% SnO\(_2\)) target and deposited on borosilicate glass substrates. By changing independently the thickness, deposition temperature oxygen pressure, a variety of microstructures deposited. The impact film physical properties different gas dynamics is stressed explained. Films at room (RT) show poorer opto-electrical properties. same true for low or high pressure. It shown that grown 1 to 10 mT Oxygen pressure 200 °C best compromise in terms transmittance resistivity. influence substrate microstructure discussed. A practical application (a Dye Sensitized Solar Cell) proposed.
