Coating Technique

Thin films of iron (Fe)-doped titanium dioxide (Fe:TiO[Formula: see text] were prepared by sol–gel spin coating technique and further calcined at 450[Formula: see text]C. The structural and optical properties of Fe-doped TiO2 thin films were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy (UV–vis) and atomic force microscopic (AFM) techniques. The XRD results confirm the nanostructured TiO2 thin films having crystalline nature with anatase phase. The characterization results show that the calcined thin films having high crystallinity and the effect of iron substitution lead to decreased crystallinity. The SEM investigations of Fe-doped TiO2 films also gave evidence that the films were continuous spherical shaped particles with a nanometric range of grain size and film was porous in nature. AFM analysis establishes that the uniformity of the TiO2 thin film with average roughness values. The optical measurements show that the films having high transparency in the visible region and the optical band gap energy of Fe-doped TiO2 film with iron (Fe) decrease with increase in iron content. These important requirements for the Fe:TiO2 films are to be used as window layers in solar cells.

Preheating Temperature

The Zinc Oxide (ZnO) films were fabricated on glass coated with indium tin oxide (ITO) substrate by sol-gel spin coating technique. With regard to the preheating temperatures, the effects of growth mechanism ZnO films on the optical and structural properties were investigated. In this study, the preheating temperatures were varied from 250°C, 280°C, and 300°C. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) and ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy were used to examine the structural and optical properties of the ZnO films. The XRD results revealed that, the ZnO films are highly crystalline for all samples which are dominated by (002) peak orientation. Meanwhile, observation from optical results indicated that, the variation of transmittance spectra were turn out and it is proportional to the preheating temperatures used. Overall, we realized that the properties of the ZnO films in the sol-gel spin coating technique strongly depend on the preheating temperature and need to be considered as important factor to obtain the high-quality of the ZnO films.
