In this study, pure
and Zn-doped CuO (denoted
by Zn:CuO) heterostructures have been
grown on glass substrates using
the sol-gel method. The effect of zinc concentration on structural, optical and electrical properties of thin films has been analyzed.
The X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) have been used to investigate the composition and the morphology of the films. Optical properties have been characterized by UV–Visible (UV–Vis) and Photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy measurements. The optical
band gap energies have been found to be dependent
on Zn doping.
Consequently, it is observed that Zn
doping have strong effect on microstructure, optical and electrical properties of
copper oxide thin films.
