Abstract | In-Sn-Zn oxide (ITZO) nanocomposite films have been investigated extensively as a potential material in thin-film transistors due to their good electrical properties. In this work, ITZO thin films were deposited on glass substrates by high-power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) at room temperature. The influence of the duty cycle (pulse off-time) on the microstructures and electrical performance of the films was investigated. The results showed that ITZO thin films prepared by HiPIMS were dense and smooth compared to thin films prepared by direct-current magnetron sputtering (DCMS). With the pulse off-time increasing from 0 μs (DCMS) to 2000 μs, the films’ crystallinity enhanced. When the pulse off-time was longer than 1000 μs, In2O3 structure could be detected in the films. The films’ electrical resistivity reduced as the pulse off-time extended. Most notably, the optimal resistivity of as low as 4.07 × 10−3 Ω·cm could be achieved when the pulse off-time was 2000 μs. Its corresponding carrier mobility and carrier concentration were 12.88 cm2V−1s−1 and 1.25 × 1020 cm−3, respectively. |
