Novel synthesis of ZnO thin films by facile solution process
A facile solution process to synthesis ZnO thin films was successfully conducted in this work. Zinc acetate dihydrates were used as the main precursor, dissolved in the mixture of acetylacetone and ethanol whichact as solvent and precursor simultaneously. This mixture deposited by spin coating and d...
