Abstract

Zinc oxide thin films were fabricated via a sol-gel method using zinc acetate as a starting reagent. The precursors used were modified with ethanolamines and/or α-hydroxyketones, and their derivatives. Oriented films with the c-axis perpendicular to the substrate were obtained from the sols modified with monoethanolamine and co-modified with monoethanolamine and acetoin. The co-modified specimens exhibited higher degrees of orientation. The film from the sol modified with monoethanolamine crystallized at the low temperature of 400°C and had an unusual plicated structure. The co-modification with acetol and hydrazine was also applicable to the sol-gel zinc oxide film. The c-axis orientation and the plicated structure of the films from the sol modified with monoethanolamine were discussed on the basis of the thermal analysis.<br>
