Abstract
Zn-Ti-O thin films with different concentrations of titanium were deposited by reactive magnetron co-sputtering in a reactive Ar/O2 atmosphere from zinc and titanium targets. It was found that with increasing Ti content the structure of the films gradually changes from a fully crystalline pure ZnO wurtzite structure with a strongly preferred columnar orientation to an amorphous Zn-Ti-O material with 12.5at.% Ti. The optical parameters (spectral refractive index and extinction coefficient, optical band gap) and thickness of the films were analysed by the combined evaluation of ellipsometric measurements and measurements of transmittance on a UV–vis spectrophotometer. For evaluation of optical parameters was used Cody-Lorentz dispersion model.
