Abstract

The properties of phosphorus doped ZnO thin films deposited on (001) sapphire substrates by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) were investigated depending on various deposition conditions. The phosphorus (P) doped ZnO target was composed of ZnO + x wt% Al (x=1, 3, 5). The structural, electrical and optical properties of the ZnO thin films were measured by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Hall measurements and photoluminescence (PL). As the deposition temperature optimized, the electrical properties of the phosphorus doped ZnO (ZnO:P) layer showed a electron concentration of $7.76\times10^{16}/cm^3$, a mobility of 10.225 $cm^2/Vs$, a resistivity of 7.932 $\Omega$cm. It was observed the electrical property of the film was changed by dopant activation effect as target variations and deposition conditions.
