Abstract
In this paper the results of structural analysis of the SnO2 and In2O3 films deposited by spray pyrolysis are presented. The main goals of this analysis are summarizing the results obtained in this field, highlighting a correlation between parameters of film deposition and the material structure and formulating some general regularities, typical for metal oxides. Peculiarities and mechanisms of pyrosol deposition as well as advantages and disadvantages of this technology for deposition of the films with required parameters were also discussed. It is shown that this technology has great potential for controlling structural parameters of metal oxides such as thickness, the grain size, texturing, roughness, the grain faceting and the porosity.
期刊介绍:
Materials especially crystalline materials provide the foundation of our modern technologically driven world. The domination of materials is achieved through detailed scientific research.
Advances in the techniques of growing and assessing ever more perfect crystals of a wide range of materials lie at the roots of much of today''s advanced technology. The evolution and development of crystalline materials involves research by dedicated scientists in academia as well as industry involving a broad field of disciplines including biology, chemistry, physics, material sciences and engineering. Crucially important applications in information technology, photonics, energy storage and harvesting, environmental protection, medicine and food production require a deep understanding of and control of crystal growth. This can involve suitable growth methods and material characterization from the bulk down to the nano-scale.
