Structural, optical and morphological properties of pure and silver doped zinc oxide thin films

Pure Zinc oxide (ZnO) and silver doped ZnO (Ag/ZnO) thin films have potential applications in many optoelectronic devices. In this work, ZnO and Ag/ZnO thin films were prepared by a low-cost sol–gel method followed by a spin coating technique on glass substrates. Both ZnO and Ag/ZnO were spin-coated...
