Nickel Oxide Thin Films

Abstract Nickel oxide thin films have been prepared by sol-gel dip-coating technique on glass substrate. It is shown that nickel oxide thin films have poly crystalline nature. Nickel oxide thin films exhibit high transmission (39–85%) in the wavelength range of 400–900 nm, strong absorption between 300 and 400 nm wavelengths and decrease of band gap values are in the range 3.69–3.27 eV with increase of withdrawal speed. High band gap at low withdrawal speed is because of the small average crystallite size, which decreases with increase in withdrawal speed. The SEM micrograph shows cubic crystallites and surface of thin films become dense, smooth and homogeneous with an increase in withdrawal speed. Assessment of nickel oxide deposition conditions provides gateway for effective and cheap solar cells.
