Time dependence of morphological and optical properties of DC sputtering grown copper oxide thin film
Copper oxide thin films with five different deposition times (30 min, 60 min, 90 min, 120 min and 150 min) had been successfully growth by dc sputtering technique. The thickness of copper oxide thin film was measured by using ellipsometer. The optical properties of copper oxide thin films were chara...

Copper oxide thin films with five different deposition times (30 min, 60 min, 90 min, 120 min and 150 min) had been successfully growth by dc sputtering technique. The thickness of copper oxide thin film was measured by using ellipsometer. The optical properties of copper oxide thin films were characterized by UV-Vis-NIR spectrometer and Photoluminescence spectrometer while the morphology images were determined by Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). The copper oxide thin film thicknesses were found around 11.6 nm, 122.1 nm, 129.7 nm, 142.4 nm and 144.2 nm with respect to the five different depositions time at 30 min time interval.
