Structural, electrical, and optical properties of atomic layer-controlled AI-doped ZnO (ZnO:Al) films grown on glass by atomic layer deposition (ALD) were characterized with various $Al_2O_3$ film contents for use as transparent electrodes. Unlike films made using sputtering methods, the diffraction peak position of the films grown by ALD based on alternate self-limiting surface chemical reactions moved progressively to a wider angle (red shift) with increasing $Al_2O_3$ film content, which seems to be evidence of Zn substitution in the film by layer-by-layer growth. By adjusting the $Al_2O_3$ film content, the electrical resistivity of ZnO:Al film with the $Al_2O_3$ film content of 2.96% reached the lowest electrical resistivity of $9.80{\times}10^{-4}\Omega{\cdot}cm$, in which the carrier mobility, carrier concentration, and optical transmittance were $11.20\;cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$, $5.69{\times}10^{20}\;cm^{-3}$, and 94.23%, respectively. Moreover, the estimated figure of merit value for the transparent conductive oxide applications from our best sample was $7.7\;m{\Omega}^{-1}$.
