Abstract
Highlights
- Thin films of Ce doped ZnO were prepared by nebulizer spray pyrolysis technique.
- Films were deposited at different cerium concentrations 2.5%, 5.0%, 7.5% and 10%.
- Ce doped ZnO films are found to have more grains along [0Â 0Â 2] direction.
- The band gap energy was found to be decreased with the increase of Ce doping.
- CexZn1âxO films ensure their stability and suitability for gas sensors.
