Abstract
The optical gap of the films was calculated from the curve of absorption coefficient (αhע) 2 vs. hע and was found to be 3.8 eV at room temperature, and this value decreases from 3.8 to 3.58 eV with increasing of annealing temperature up to 473-673 K, and increases with the Ga doping. λ cutoff was calculated for ZnO and showed an increase with increasing annealing temperature and shifting to longer wavelength, while with doping the λ cutoff shifted to shorter wavelength. The photoluminescence (PL) results indicate that the pure ZnO thin films grown at room temperature show strong peaks at 640 nm , but GaO doped ZnO films showed a band emission in the yellow-green spectral region (380 to 450nm).
Highlights
Transparent conducting oxide (TCO) is very important in optoelectronic application, such as solar cell, sensor, and liquid crystal displays
ITO is used usually to be a transparent conducting film [3,4,5], but the cost of ITO is too high to reduce the price of products which have a TCO film

Summary
Transparent conducting oxide (TCO) is very important in optoelectronic application, such as solar cell, sensor, and liquid crystal displays. The conductivity of ZnO without intentionally doping is not high enough as TCO films. ZnO films are fabricated by RF magnetron sputtering [18, 19], chemical vapor deposition [20], spray pyrolysis [21, 22] and sol–gel process [23, 24], etc. Among them, pulsed laser deposition [25] technique, metal-organic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD) [26], arc plasma evaporation [27], dip-coating [28] and ion plating [29]. This outline provides a good context in which is pulsed laser deposition (PLD) can be viewed. The advantages of pulsed laser ablation are flexibility, fast response, energetic evaporants and congruent evaporation
