Zinc oxide nanostructures: the effect of deposition parameters on the electrical properties using sol-gel method

Nanostructured Zinc Oxide (ZnO) has been deposited on Silicon Dioxide (Si02) using sol-gel method. The Si02 was grown on Silicon (Si) using dry oxidation process in 1 atrn ambient. In sol-gel method. a lot of deposition parameters need to be considered to remain the uniformity v and reproduc...
