Abstract
Aluminium (Al) - doped zinc oxide (ZnO) nanorods with different weight percent (wt%) of polyethylene glycol (PEG) has been deposited on glass substrate. The concentrations of PEG have been varied from 0 wt %, 15 wt % and 30 wt %. The percentage weight of the PEG is the ratio between PEG mass to the hexamethyltetramine (HMT) and zinc nitrate hexahydrate (Zn (NO3).6H2O) mass. The structural properties of the samples have been characterized using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and x-ray diffraction (XRD) and electrical properties has been characterized using current voltage (I-V) measurement. The analyses showed that PEG addition have reduced the crystallinity and conductivity of the samples.
