Abstract

The paper presents the obtaining of thin films out of ZnO by thermal evaporation and oxidation, in a conventional furnace, at various temperatures between 350-550 oC of films from pure Zn deposited. The influence of current intensity, deposition  time and oxidation temperature on film structure and transparency was monitored.
