In this work, ZnO nanofilm was deposited by radio frequency (RF) sputtering technique and the thickness was varied in the range of 50 to 200 nm. The overall results show that the average transmission of i-ZnO was over 70% and the band gap (Eg) obtained was in the range of 3.14 eV-3.25 eV for all nanofilms. Meanwhile, for the structural results, it was clearly shown that the crystalline size of the nanofilms have good quality, and all ZnO films exhibited a (002) diffraction peak, proving the crystallinity of the films via x-ray diffraction (XRD) data analysis. The results assume that the ZnO with various thicknesses deposited with this technique were in accordance with its expected properties and is acceptable to be utilized in TFSC application as a buffer or window layer. 2021-02-09T01:24:42Z 2021-02-09T01:24:42Z 2020-12 Article International Journal of Nanoelectronics and Materials, vol.13(Special Issue), 2020, pages 1-10 1985-5761 (Printed) 1997-4434 (Online) http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/69607 en NANOSYM, 2019; Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP)
