Conductive zinc oxide thin film coatings by combustion chemical vapour deposition at atmospheric pressure

► Zinc oxide (ZnO) films are conductive in the range of 2.0 · 10− 1 Ωcm. ► X-ray diffraction, Raman and infrared spectroscopy indicate crystalline ZnO films. ► Precursor deposits were proved within the films for low growing temperatures. ► Band gap energy changes are achieved due to different growing temperatures.
