摘要
Transparent p-type conducting K-doped NiO thin films were prepared by pulsed plasma deposition. The structural, electrical and optical properties of the films were investigated using X-ray diffraction, atomic force microscope, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Hall measurement, and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, respectively. The dependency of film properties on K doping content and substrate temperature was studied. The film with K doping content of 25 at.%deposited at room temperature exhibits the highest conductivity of 4.25 S cm鈭?#xA0;1 and an average transmittance of nearly 60%in visible light region.
