Abstract: | Ce-doped ZnO films were prepared by the sol-gel method with spin coating onto glass substrates.Zinc acetate dihydrate,ethanol,diethanolamine and cerium nitrate hexahydrate were used as starting material,solvent,stabilizer and dopant source,respectively.Structure and microstructure of the films were characterized with X-ray diffraction(XRD),field emission-scanning electron microscopy(FE-SEM) and the energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry(EDS).The infrared properties were also investigated.It was found that Ce-... |
