In this work, the indium zinc oxide (IZO) films had been deposited on the glass substrate coated with the SiO film. Based on a comparative investigation of the IZO monolayer and IZO/SiO multilayer, it is shown that the thickness of SiO film has a great effect on the mechanical properties of the thin films. The AFM images of the IZO thin film included the SiO film were shown smoother surfaces than monolayer. Resistivity was in inverse proportion to Mobility. If it deposited the SiO film on the substrate, the layer of change was generated between two layer(SiO and substrate). The layer of change influenced resistance because of oxygen content was more than the IZO monolayer.

We investigated that electrical and optical the properties of IZO thin film for OLED anode application. The IZO thin film was the deposited on the glass substrate by facing targets system as a function of substrate temperature. As a result, the electrical and optical property of IZO thin film prepared with $150^{\circ}C$ was most excellent. To confirm the suitability of the IZO thin film for OLED anode, we evaluated the performance of OLED with IZO/TPD/Alq3/LiF/Al fabricated on IZO anode. Also, the performance of OLED fabricated on IZO anode showed the most excellent at $150^{\circ}C$ substrate temperature.

In this study, transparent conducting oxide indium zinc oxide (IZO) thin films were deposited by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) Process as a function of the deposition time on the glass substrates at $400^{\circ}C$. The crystal structures, electrical and optical properties of IZO films analyzed by XRD, AFM, and UV spectrometer. High quality IZO thin film with the resistivity of $9.1{\times}10^{-4}$ ohm cm and optical transmittance over 85% was obtained for sample when deposition time was 15min. Thin films with the preferred orientations along the c axis were observed as the deposition time increased.

Indium Zinc Tin Oxide (IZTO) thin films for transparent thin film transistor (TTFT) were deposited on glass substrate at room temperature by facing targets sputtering (FTS). The FTS system was designed to array two targets facing each other and forms the high- density plasma between. Two different kinds of targets were installed on FTS system. One is ITO ($In_2O_3$ 90wt.%, $SnO_2$ 10wt.%), the other is IZO($In_2O_3$ 90wt%, ZnO 10wt%). The conductive and optical properties of IZTO thin film is determined depending on variation of DC power and working pressure. Therefore, IZTO thin films were prepared with different DC power and working pressure. As-deposited IZTO thin films were investigated by a UV/VIS spectrometer, an X-ray diffractometer (XRD), a scanning electron microscopy (SEM), a Hall Effect measurement system. As a result, all IZTO thin films deposited on glass substrate showed over 80% of transmittance in visible range (400~800 nm) at $O_2$ gas flow rate. We could obtain IZTO thin films with the lowest resistivity $5.67\times10^{-4}$ [$\Omega{\cdot}cm$] at $O_2$ gas flow rate 0.4 [sccm).

Transparent In-doped zinc oxide (IZO) thin films are deposited with variation of pulsed DC power at Ar atmosphere on coming 7059 glass substrate by pulsed DC magnetron sputtering. A c-axis oriented IZO thin films were grown in perpendicular to the substrate. The optical transmittance spectra showed high transmittance of over 80% in the UV-visible region and exhibited the absorption edge of about 350 nm. Also, the IZO films exhibited the resistivity of ${\sim}10^{-3}{\Omega}\;cm$ and the mobility of ${\sim}6cm/V\;s$. Organic Light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) with IZO/N,N'-diphenyl-N, N'-bis(3-methylphenl)-1, 1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine (TPD)/tris (8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum ($Alq_3$)/LiF/Al configuration were fabricated. LiF layer inserted is used as an interfacial layer to increase the electron injection. Under a current density of $100\;mA/cm^2$, the OLEDs show an excellent efficiency (9.4 V turn-on voltage) and a good brightness ($12000\;cd/m^2$) of the emission light from the devices. These results indicate that IZO films hold promise for anode electrodes in the OLEDs application.

[ $In_2O_3-ZnO(IZO)$ ] and $In_2O_3-ZnO-SnO_2(IZTO)$ thin films were prepared on EAGLE 2000 glass webs in a Ar gas by RF-Magnetron sputtering. Electrical resistivity and optical transmittance of the films were investigated. IZO, IZTO film showed excellent optical transmittance of 85 % at the visible $400{\sim}$780 nm wavelength. Electrical properties of IZO film have $6.50{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$ (95 $In_2O_3$ : 5 ZnO wt.%) and $5.20{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$ (90 : 10 wt.%), IZTO film have $8.00{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$ (90 $In_2O_3$ : 3 ZnO : 7 $SnO_2$ wt.%) and $6.50{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$ (90 : 7 : 3 wt.%). Substitution of SnO to ZnO in ITO films showed slightly lower electrical conductivity than ITO film but showed similar optical transmittance.

Amorphous transparent oxide semiconductors (a-TOS) have been widely studied for many optoelectronic devices such as AM-OLED (active-matrix organic light emitting diodes). Recently, Nomura et al. demonstrated high performance amorphous IGZO (In-Ga-Zn-O) TFTs.1 Despite the amorphous structure, due to the conduction band minimum (CBM) that made of spherically extended s-orbitals of the constituent metals, an a-IGZO TFT shows high mobility.2,3 But IGZO films contain high cost rare metals. Therefore, we need to investigate the alternatives. Because Aluminum has a high bond enthalpy with oxygen atom and Alumina has a high lattice energy, we try to replace Gallium with Aluminum that is high reserve low cost material. In this study, we focused on the electrical properties of IZO:Al thin films as a channel layer of TFTs. IZO:Al were deposited on unheated non-alkali glass substrates (5 cm ${\times}$ 5 cm) by magnetron co-sputtering system with two cathodes equipped with IZO target and Al target, respectively. The sintered ceramic IZO disc (3 inch ${\phi}$, 5 mm t) and metal Al target (3 inch ${\phi}$, 5 mm t) are used for deposition. The O2 gas was used as the reactive gas to control carrier concentration and mobility. Deposition was carried out under various sputtering conditions to investigate the effect of sputtering process on the characteristics of IZO:Al thin films. Correlation between sputtering factors and electronic properties of the film will be discussed in detail.

Transparent In-doped (1 at.%) zinc oxide (IZO) thin films are deposited by pulsed DC magnetron sputtering with H2 mixed Ar atmosphere on glass substrate without any heating process. Even at room temperature, highly c-axis oriented IZO thin films were grown in perpendicular to the substrate. The hydrogenated IZO (IZO:H) film isolated in H2 atmosphere for 30 min exhibited an average optical transmittance higher than 85% and low electrical resistivity of less than 2.7 × 10?3 Ω·cm. These values are comparable with those of commercially available ITO. Each of the IZO films was used as an anode contact to fabricate organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and the device performances studied. At the current density of 1 × 103 A/m2, the OLEDs with IZO:H (H2) anode show excellent efficiency (11 V drive voltage) and a good brightness (8000 cd/m2) of the light emitted from the devices, which are as good as the control device built on a commercial ITO anode.

The Indium Zinc Tin Oxide (IZTO) thin films for flexible display electrode were deposited on poly carbonate (PC) and polyethersulfone(PES) and glass substrates at room temperature by facing targets sputtering (FTS). Two different kinds of targets were installed on FTS system. One is ITO ($In_2O_3$ 90 wt.%, $SnO_2$ 10 wt.%), the other is IZO ($In_2O_3$ 90 wt.%, ZnO 10 wt.%). As-deposited IZTO thin films were investigated by a UV/VIS spectrometer, an X-ray diffractometer (XRD), an atomic force microscope (AFM) and a Hall Effect measurement system. As a result, we could prepare the IZTO thin films with the resistivity of under $10^{-4}\;[{\Omega}{\cdot}cm]$ and IZTO thin films deposited on glass substrate showed an average transmittance over 80% in visible range (400~800 nm) in all IZTO thin films except in IZTO thin film deposited at $O_2$ gas flow rate of 0.1[sccm].

rf 마그네트론 스퍼터링 방법을 사용하여 유리기판 위에 $In_2O_3$ : ZnO=90 : 10 $wt.\%$의 조성비를 갖는 indium-zinc-oxide(IZO) 박막을 산소분압 $O_2$/(Ar +$O_2$) : $0\~10 \%$의 Ar가스 분위기에서 제작하였다. IZO 박막의 면저항은 증착 시 유입되는 산소량이 증가함에 따라 현저하게 증가하는데, 순수한 Ar 가스 분위기에서 증착될 때 $3.7\times10^{-4}\Omega\cdot$ cm 정도의 가장 낮은 비저항과 가시광 영역에서 평균 $85\%$ 이상의 투과율을 보이는 박막이 얻어진다. $600^{\circ}C$의 다양한 환경에서 옅처리될 경우, 순수한 Ar 분위기에서 성막된 IZO 박막의 전기적 저항 변화는 박막 내에 포함된 In 또는 InO와 같은 금속 성분들의 결정화와 산화에 의해 설명되어 진다. 또한 IZO 박막을 공기 중에서 열처리하는 동안 $600^{\circ}C$ 이상에서 현저하게 일어나는 산소 흡착과 구조 변화에 의한 전기적 특성들이 조사된다.
