The microstructural evolution, including preferred orientation and surface morphology, of ZnO films deposited by rf magnetron sputtering was investigated with increasing film thickness. Preferred orientation of the ZnO films changed from (0002) → (1011) → (1120) and fine and dense columnar grains also changed to large elongated grains with increasing thickness. Such selective texture growth was explained with an effect of highly energetic species bombardment on the growing film surface. The relationship between preferred orientation change and microstructural evolution was also discussed.
