High mobility and transparent ZTO ETM prepared by RF reactive co-sputtering for perovskite solar cell application

Thin-films of Zinc Tin Oxide (ZTO) with high charge carrier mobility and superior optical transmittance has been prepared by the rf-reactive co-sputtering technique in argon-oxygen (99:01) ambient. These deposited films have been systematically studied to determine the effect of deposition temperatu...

X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectra indicated that the ZTO films remain amorphous even growth temperature increased to 400 �C. The films deposited at room temperature (RT) and 100 �C were slightly tin-rich found in Energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy compared to the films deposited over 100 �C. It was found that growth temperature played a crucial role in carrier concentration and mobility of the films and such properties are controlled by the grain boundary scattering over the Sn dopant concentration.
