초록

Aluminum-doped ZnO (AZO) thin films were deposited by atomic layer deposition (ALD) with respect to the Al doping concentrations. In order to explain the chemical stability and electrical properties of the AZO thin films after hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) solution immersion treatment at room temperature, we investigated correlations between the electrical resistivity and the electronic structure, such as chemical bonding state, conduction band, band edge state below conduction band, and band alignment. Al-doped at ~ 10 at % showed not only a dramatic improvement of the electrical resistivity but also excellent chemical stability, both of which are strongly associated with changes of chemical bonding states and band edge states below the conduction band.
