Structural, morphological, optical and electrical properties of europium doped In2O3 thin films grown by spray pyrolysis technique are studied in this work. The atomic percentages of europium dopant in In2O3-based solution were y = width="42" alt="View the MathML source" title="View the MathML source" src="/sd/grey_pxl.gif" data-inlimgeid="1-s2.0-S1369800116302268-si0014.gif">=0; 0.1; 0.3 and 0.5 at%. All films crystallize into the body centered cubic structure. The preferred orientation peak along the (222) plane was changed to (400) after doping. It is further revealed a best crystallinity for y =0.3 at% followed by a noticeable increase of the grain size. Some structural and microstructural parameters are determined using Rietveld refinement of XRD patterns. The optical transmission of doped films was above 68% in the visible range. The optical band gap (Eg) is in the range of [3.43–3.51] eV. Optical constant such as refractive index (n), packing density (p), porosity, oscillator energy (E0) and dispersive energy (Ed) were also studied in this report using envelope method based on transmission-reflection spectra. Electrical properties show a lowest resistivity (ρ) for a doping concentration equals to 0.3 at% reaching 0.031 Ω cm. At this doping ratio, an enhancement of free carrier concentration is also remarked. A heat treatment under nitrogen atmosphere is then applied on optimized In2O3:Eu (0.3 at%). A significant decrease of the resistivity is noted at 250 °C during 2 h reaching 0.004 Ω cm. These results lead to conclude that annealed In2O3:Eu(0.3 at%) can be a good candidate to be used in many optoelectronic devices and especially as optical window or transparent electrode in solar cells.
