Surface Development of Polyethylene Terephthalate Films Using Low-Pressure, High-Frequency Argon + Oxygen Plasma on Zinc Powder for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells.

This research has developed a process for producing ZnO thin film from DEZn deposited onto a PET substrate with low-pressure, high-frequency Ar + O plasma using a chemical vapor deposition technique. The aim is to study the film production conditions that affect electrical properties, optical properties, and thin film surfaces. This work highlights the use of plasma energy produced from a mixture of gases between Ar + O.
