Abstract
Fabrication of ZnO films in sol-gel method using zinc 2-ethylhexanoate as the novel monomer was investigated. The properties of films produced by this monomer were compared with those of films produced by zinc acetate based conventional monomers. It was found that the new monomer produced zinc oxide films at lower temperatures than zinc acetate. Dependence of degree of crystallinity and crystal size on annealing temperate is discussed in this paper.
