Transport properties of transparent conducting oxide thin film, Nb:In2O3

ORAL

Abstract

Thin films of Nb-doped In$_{2}$O$_{3}$ were deposited on YSZ(001) by magnetron co-sputtering. The well-oriented thin films were studied as a function of Nb doping by x-ray diffraction, optical absorption spectroscopy and magneto-transport measurement. The optical transparency in the visible and infrared spectral ranges is 97-99{\%} while the electrical resistivity is about 0.4 m$\Omega $-cm. The variation of these properties with respect to doping will be discussed in the context of scattering and optical transition mechanisms. *Also with Department of Physics and Center for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, National Sun Yat-Sen University, Kaohsiung, Taiwan, Republic of China.
