Al doped ZnO thin film have been prepared by a sol-gel method. The structural, and optical properties of the sample were investigated. X-ray diffraction and X-ray absorption spectroscopy analyses and UV absorption spectroscopy analyses indicate that Al3+ substitute for Zn2+ without changing the wurtzite structure. With the Al doping, the visible emission increased and the UV emission decreased, which is attributed to the increase of O vacancies and Zn interstitials.

The (Cu,Al):ZnO thin films were prepared on glass substrates by sol-gel spin coating technique.The effect of annealing temperature on the structural and optical properties of the (Cu, Al):ZnO thin film was investigated by means of X-ray diffraction and UV-vis spectrophotometer. It has been found that the grain sizes, Optical band gap and the preferred orientation growth of (002) plane were decreased with annealing temperature. the annealing temperature also played a significant role in the blue-shifted phenomenon.

Un-doped and (Cu, Al)-doped ZnO thin films were prepared by sol-gel spin coating technique on glass substrate. The effect of(Cu, Al)incorporation on the structural, morphological and optical properties of the Zinc oxide (ZnO)film was investigated by means of X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and UV-vis spectrophotometer. It has been found that the grain sizes, Optical band gap and the preferred orientation growth of (002) plane were decreased with increasing of (Cu, Al) dopants amount in ZnO films.

AbstractA nanocomposite of 0.5SnO2–0.5Al2O3 has been synthesized using a sol-gel route. Structural and optical properties of the nanocomposite have been discussed in detail. Powder X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray diffraction spectroscopy confirm the phase purity and the particle size of the 0.5SnO2–0.5Al2O3 nanocomposite (13 to 15 nm). The scanning electron microscopy also confirms the porosity in the sample, useful in sensing applications. The FT-IR analysis confirms the presence of physical interaction between SnO2 and Al2O3 due to the slight shifting and broadening of characteristic bands. The UV-Vis analysis confirms the semiconducting nature because of direct transition of electrons into the 0.5SnO2–0.5Al2O3 nanocomposites.

ABSTRACTUltraviolet photoconductivity in Copper doped ZnO (Cu:ZnO) thin films synthesized by sol-gel technique is investigated. Response characteristics of Pure ZnO thin film and Cu:ZnO thin film UV photodetector with 1.3 at. wt % Cu doping biased at 5 V for UV radiation of λ = 365 nm and intensity = 24 µwatt/cm2 has been studied. Cu:ZnO UV photodetector is found to exhibit a high photocoductive gain (K = 1.5×104) with fast recovery (T90% = 23s) in comparison to pure ZnO thin film based photodetector (K = 4.9×101 and T90% = 41s). Cu2+ ions have been substituted in ZnO lattice which has been confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy leading to lowering of dark current (Ioff ∼ 1.44 nA). Upon UV illumination, more electron hole pairs are generated in the photodetector due to the high porosity and roughness of the surface of the film which favours adsorption of more oxygen on the surface of the photodetector. The photogenerated holes recombined with the trapped electrons, increasing the concentration of photogenerated electrons in the conduction band enhancing the photocurrent (Ion ∼ 0.02 mA) of the Cu:ZnO photodetector.

In this research, TiO2 thin films were prepared using a simple sol-gel spin coating process. The films were characterized using Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM), Energy Dispersive Ray (EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Ultraviolet–visible Spectrophotometer in order to investigate the influence of different annealing temperatures to the structural and optical properties of TiO2. The surface morphology images from FE-SEM display a uniform layer of nanoparticles with a sample of 500 °C possess the most uniform and the visible spherical grain of TiO2 nanoparticles. EDX spectra confirm the presence of Ti and O elements in the samples. The structural properties from the XRD pattern demonstrate that the films are crystalline at a temperature of 500 and 600 °C and the peak (101) intensity was increased as the annealing temperature increased. They exist in the anatase phase at the preferred plane orientation of (101). The calculated crystallite size for 500 and 600 °C samples is 19.22 and 28.37 nm, respectively. The films also possessed excellent absorption in the ultraviolet (UV) region with optical band gap energy ranging from 3.32 to 3.43 eV. These results can be fundamental for the fabrication of a UV sensing device.
