Abstract

In this work, we discuss the combinatorial deposition and analysis of transparent conducting oxides along the ZnO-SnO₂ composition tie line. Libraries were deposited by co-sputtering from ZnO and Sn-metal targets. The production and analysis of Zn-Sn-O libraries has already produced significant results, confirming the properties of the 2:1 (Zn₂SnO₄) region and revealing a second region of interest, the 1:1(ZnSnO₃) composition. Subsequent film growth of these stochiometries by pulsed laser deposition has confirmed the potential for both of these stochiometries. Work is currently underway to optimize both Zn₂SnO₄ and ZnSnO₃. Planned future work includes a combinatorial investigation of ternary metal systems such as Zn-In-Sn-O.
