The goal of this thesis is to investigate the properties of metal-oxide thin films on fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO)-coated glass substrates, prepared by using radio- frequency (RF) reactive magnetron sputtering for photoelectrochemical (PEC) applications. Metal-oxide thin films as a photoelectrode are of special interest for PEC systems to produce hydrogen in an aqueous solution by solar energy due to their low cost and potential stability.
The following list represents some of the accomplishments and results of this work:
- Narrowing of N-incorporated ZnO (ZnO:N) was achieved by reactive sputtering in a O2/N2 mixture ambient, and ZnO:N films with …
