摘要: We have studied grain growth and electrical properties of polycrystalline tin oxide (SnO 2 ) thin films prepared by vacuum-evaporation with a two-step process: evaporation metal then oxidation these films. Surface morphology the SnO was observed atomic force microscopy. The size is found to increase film thickness temperature. Kinetics discussed in terms 3-dimensional diffusion limited process. diode current-voltage (I-V) characteristic /Si heterojunctions (isotype anisotype) measured temperature range 14K-383K. Changes ideality factor threshold voltage are discussed. In addition, we present ambient tunnelling I-V results from individual grains.
