Transparent and conducting boron doped ZnO thin films grown by aerosol assisted chemical vapor deposition
ZnO based transparent conducting oxides are important as they provide an alternative to the more expensive Sn : In 2 O 3 that currently dominates the industry. Here, we investigate B-doped ZnO thin films grown via aerosol assisted chemical vapour deposition. B : ZnO films were produced from zinc ace...
