Abstract:
Zn1-xMgxO thin films were prepared by aerosol deposition and spin-coating method, using zinc acetate and magnesium acetate as precursors. The obtained films were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electrical and photoelectrical characterization. SEM and energy dispersive x-ray (EDX) analysis has shown that the produced thin films are homogeneous in morphology and composition. The relaxation of photoconductivity under UV illumination was investigated in vacuum as a function of temperature.
