Transparent conductors as solar energy materials: A panoramic review
TL;DR: Transparent conductors (TCs) have a multitude of applications for solar energy utilization and for energy savings, especially in buildings as discussed by the authors, which leads naturally to considerations of spectral selectivity, angular selectivity, and temporal variability of TCs, as covered in three subsequent sections.

Optical and electrical properties of radio frequency sputtered tin oxide films doped with oxygen vacancies, F, Sb, or Mo
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used reactive rf magnetron sputtering of Sn, Sb, or Mo in Ar+O2(+CF4) onto glass heated to a temperature up to 530 °C. Optimized deposition parameters gave SnOx:(Sb,F) films with high luminous transmittance, low luminous absorptance, high infrared reflectance, and dc resistivity down to 9.1×10−4 Ω
