Characterization of transparent conductive thin films of indium oxide
TLDR
In this article, a metal alloy target of indium doped with about 5% by weight tin was sputtered in 100% oxygen onto quartz substrates and then annealed at temperatures up to 600°C in an argon−flow system.Abstract:
A metal alloy target of indium doped with about 5% by weight tin was rf sputtered in 100% oxygen onto quartz substrates. These films of indium−tin oxide were then annealed at temperatures up to 600°C in an argon−flow system. Their optical and electrical properties were examined as a function of annealing temperature. Optimum film properties include a sheet resistance of 2−3 Ω/⧠ with a transparency of 95% over the entire visible region. Optical extinction coefficients, percent transmission, and refractive indices were determined as a function of annealing temperature and sheet resistance. Results show that the infrared reflection loss of films of indium−tin oxide can be attributed to the amount of oxygen vacancies which are incorporated into the film.read more

Electrical properties of vacuum-deposited indium oxide and indium tin oxide films
TL;DR: In this article, it was determined from thermal stability tests that the contribution to the carrier density made by the addition of tin was at most (3−4) × 1020 cm−3; i.e. the efficiency of generation of free carriers by the adding of tin is only a few tens of per cent.
