## Abstract Zinc oxide thin films have been prepared via a sol–gel process. The influence of annealing temperature on the structural and optical properties of the ZnO thin films has been investigated. The prepared ZnO thin films had a polycrystalline hexagonal wurtzite structure with no preferred o

Using erbium acetate as an Er source, transparent ZnO films doped with Er were fabricated by sol-gel method through spin-coating on quartz substrates. The as-prepared ZnO:Er films were annealed in air at 400 • C for 6 h, at 600 • C, 800 • C and 1000 • C for 2 h, respectively. The ZnO:Er films exhibi
In this work, ZnO thin films were prepared by sol-gel method and the effect of aging time of ZnO sol on the structural and optical properties of the films was studied. The structural characteristics of the samples were analyzed by an atomic force microscope and an X-ray diffractometer. The optical p
The present study focused on ZnO thin films fabricated by sol-gel process and spin coated onto Si (1 0 0) and quartz substrates. ZnO thin films have a hexagonal wu ¨rtzite structure with a grain diameter about 50 nm. Optical properties were determined by photoluminescence (PL) and absorption spectro
