Thickness and Annealing Effects on Thermally Evaporated InZnO Thin Films for Gas Sensors and Blue, Green and Yellow Emissive Optical Devices

Indium zinc oxide (InZnO) thin films with thicknesses of 100 nm and 200 nm were deposited on glass plate by thermal evaporation technique. Fourier transform infrared spectra showed a strong metal-oxide bond. X-ray diffraction patterns revealed amorphous nature for as-deposited film whereas polycryst...
