Properties of ITO on plastics and glass by Nd:YAG laser deposition at 355 and 532nm

Indium tin oxide (ITO) was deposited on polycarbonate (PC), polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and glass substrates at room temperature and in a low-pressure oxygen environment by a pulsed Nd:YAG laser at 355 and 532 nm. The ITO film resistivity varied with the oxygen pressure, which achieved the lowe...

description Indium tin oxide (ITO) was deposited on polycarbonate (PC), polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and glass substrates at room temperature and in a low-pressure oxygen environment by a pulsed Nd:YAG laser at 355 and 532 nm. The ITO film resistivity varied with the oxygen pressure, which achieved the lowest value of 1.5 x 10(-3) Omega cm from the four-point probe measurements. The highest optical transmittance which depended on the target-to-substrate distance, was determined from UV-vis-NIR spectrophotometer. The highest optical transmission was 94% at 5 cm. The carrier concentration, of the order of 10(19) cm(-3) was determined from the Hall-effect measurements. Those films deposited at 355 nm of laser wavelength did show some better properties as compared to 532 nm. Attempts were made to use these ITO-coated plastic substrates for the fabrication of a organic light-emitting device that was based on single-layer, molecularly doped (poly(N-vinyl carbazole)) (PVK) with a mixture of tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (III) (Alq(3)) and N,N'-bis (3-methylphenyl)-N,N'-bis-(phenyl)-benzidine (TPD) of 1:1 ratio.
