Influence of Cr doping on Schottky barrier height and visible light detection of ZnO thin films deposited by magnetron sputtering

A comparative study of the electrical and photodetection properties of ZnO and Cr doped ZnO thin films are being reported here. The films were deposited using magnetron sputtering. X-ray diffraction (XRD) revealed hexagonal crystal structure of the films with (002) preferred orientation. Pt/ZnO/Pt a...
