Abstract
In this study, aluminum-doped ZnO thin film is successfully deposited using the sol–gel method. Aluminum-doped zinc oxide (AZO) thin film has been prepared by doping 3% aluminum in zinc oxide using the sol–gel method. The prepared Al–ZnO thin film has been successfully characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV spectroscopy, and Hall measurement. Thermoelectric measurements are performed using an in-house thermoelectric setup. The Seebeck coefficient of the AZO thin film is calculated to be 0.063 mV/K. The optical bandgap energy of the prepared AZO thin film is estimated to be 3.19 eV.
