Experimental evidence of wide bandgap in triclinic (001)-oriented SnO(PO) thin films on YO buffered glass substrates
Sn 5 O 2 (PO 4 ) 2 is a promising p-type transparent semiconducting oxide. Phase-pure triclinic Sn 5 O 2 (PO 4 ) 2 thin films were grown by pulsed laser deposition using a Sn 2 (P 2 O 7 ) target with higher phosphorus content. The (001)-oriented growth of triclinic Sn 5 O 2 (PO 4 ) 2 on glass was ac...
