Abstract
Undoped zinc oxide (ZO) and aluminum doped ZnO (AZO) films were grown using MBE. The growth rate and the electric properties were changed with the growth condition such as the growth temperature and the Zn/O supplying ratio. In the AZO films grown with the optimized growth conditions, the carrier concentration and Hall mobility were above 1020cm-3 and about 60cm2V-1s-1, respectively. The AZO films showed characteristics of degenerate semiconductors. The optical properties of these films were investigated by temperature dependence cathode luminescence spectra. The AZO film gave UV emission, which is not assignable to excitonic emission.
