title: Electrical and optical properties of nanostructured zinc oxide thin films influenced by annealing temperature.
abstract: Transparent nanostructured ZnO thin films were successfully deposited using sol-gel spin coating method on a quartz substrate. The 0.4 M ZnO solution gel was prepared using zinc acetate dihydrate (Zn(CH3COO)22H2O) as the precursor, 2-methoxyethanol as the solvent and monoethanolamine (MEA) as the stabilizer. The electrical and optical properties dependencies on the annealing temperature of the nanostructured ZnO thin films were investigated. It was found that as the annealing temperature increased, the particle size, conductivity and the peak of the UV emission also increased.
