In this work, pure Zinc oxide and tin doped Zinc oxide thin films nanoparticles with various volume concentrations of 2, 4, 6, and 8V/V% were prepared by using the sol-gel method. The optical properties were investigated by using UV-Visible spectroscope, and the value exhibits the direct allowed transition. The average of transmittance was around ~(17-23) %in visible region. The optical energy band gap was calculated with wavelength (300-900) nm for pure ZnO and Sn doped ZnO thin films which decreases with increasing concentration from 3.4 eV to 3.1 eV respectively and red shift. The real dielectric(εr) and the imaginary dielectric εiare the same behavior of the refractive index(n) the extinction coefficient (k) respectively. The optical limiting properties were studied by using an SDL laser with a wavelength of 235 nm. ZnO and doping thin films an found efficient as optic limiting and depend on the concentration of the all samples.

AbstractThe influence of zinc acetate concentration in the range 0.3 – 1.3M and annealing temperature in the range 450 – 550°C on the microstructure of zinc oxide films prepared by the sol-gel method was investigated. Zinc acetate concentration of the sol-gel deposited was found to be the major influence on the microstructure and in particular c-axis or (002) preferred orientation of the resulting film, due to its impact on film thickness, for a single sol-gel deposition employing fixed deposition conditions. Preferentially (002) orientated films were obtained from 0.3M zinc acetate sol-gels. However, an increase in zinc acetate concentration resulted in an increase in film thickness and a loss of preferentially (002) orientation. It was found that thick preferentially (002) oriented films could be produced by using multiple depositions of a 0.7M zinc acetate sol-gel using higher drying temperatures.
