XPS Characterization of Transparent Conductive Oxide based on doped ZnO films

This work presents an elemental characterization of vanadium-doped zinc oxide (ZnO:V) thin films, deposited by atomic layer deposition (ALD), for use as transparent conductive oxides (TCO) in transparent photovoltaic cells. This characterization has been carried out by X-ray Photoelectron Spectrosco...
