Abstract

Al doped ZnO (AZO) single layer and AZO/Ag bi-layered films were deposited on the glass substrates by radio frequency and direct current magnetron sputtering and then the effect of Ag buffer layer on the electrical and optical properties of the films was investigated. The thicknesses of AZO upper layer was kept as 100 nm, while Ag buffer layer was varied from 5 to 15 nm. The observed results mean that opto-electrical properties of the AZO films is influenced with Ag buffer layer and AZO film with 10 nm thick Ag buffer layer show the higher opto-electrical performance than that of the AZO single layer film prepared in this study.
