Abstract
In this paper, results are reported from the study of the structural and optical properties of ZnO nanostructured arrays with nanorods (NRs) grown electrochemically on ITO seeding layers with two different thicknesses deposited on a glass substrate. The properties are compared of the ZnO NRs grown on ITO seeding layers with resistivity 6.4 × 10-4 Ω cm, sheet resistance 80 Ω/□ and 8 Ω/□ and different ITO thicknesses - 80 and 800 nm, respectively. The optical spectra of reflectance, transmittance, diffused reflection and diffused transmission and the haze ratio in transmission and reflection of the samples carried out before and after ZnO NRs deposition are compared and discussed. The structures' properties are studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The ZnO NRs arrays with increased values of diffused transmission and reflection compared to the seeding layer substrates can be used in thin-film solar cells for increasing the light trapping.
