In this paper, we investigated indium-tin-oxide (ITO) thin films on glass substrates deposited by RF magnetron sputtering using ceramic target to find the optimal condition for fabricating optoelectronic devices. The structural, electrical and optical properties of the ITO films prepared at various substrate temperatures were investigated. The results indicate the grain size increases with substrate temperature increases. As the substrate temperature grew up, the resistivity of ITO films greatly decreased. The ITO film possesses high quality in terms of electrode functions, when substrate temperature is 480°C. The resistivity is as low as 9.42 × 10-5 Ω• cm , while the carrier concentration and mobility are as high as 3.461 × 1021 atom∕cm3 and 19.1 cm2∕V⋅s, respectively. The average transmittance of the film is about 95% in the visible region. The novel ITO/np-Silicon frame, which prepared by RF magnetron sputtering at 480°C substrate temperature, can be used not only for low-cost solar cell, but also for high quantum efficiency of UV and visible lights enhanced photodetector for various applications.

Sputtering Deposition

The electrical and optical properties, and microstructures of 100 nm-thick Ga2O3 films fabricated on Al2O3(0001) substrates by a sputtering deposition were investigated. The partial pressure of oxygen was controlled and the substrate temperature was kept to be 500 °C during deposition. With increasing the oxygen partial pressure, the structures of the Ga2O3 films deposited on the substrates were observed to change from amorphous to crystalline (monoclinic β-type Ga2O3). The transmittance of the Ga2O3 films was measured to be more than 80 % at the visible and ultraviolet regions although the electrical resistivity was high. In order to obtain both low electrical resistivity and high transmittance at the ultraviolet regions, the addition of active dopant elements such as Sn into the Ga2O3 films would be required.

Ti doped ITO (ITO:Ti) thin films were fabricated on glass substrates by RF magnetron sputtering using only one piece of ITO:Ti ceramic target at different substrate temperature (Ts). The effect of substrate temperature on structural, electrical, and optical properties of the films was investigated. It is confirmed that the resistivity of the films decreases with the increase of Ts till the minimum value of 2.5×10-4 Ω•cm and the transmittance in visible wavelengths is higher than 90%. "Blue shift" and "red shift" of UV absorption edge of the film were observed when Ts200 °CHeaders and footers
