Resistivity Scaling Transition in Ultrathin Metal Film at Critical Thickness and Its Implication for the Transparent Conductor Applications

Yong-Bum Park et al.

Summary: Understanding the electrical and optical properties of ultrathin metal films at sub-10 nm thickness is crucial for their application as transparent conductors. As the thickness approaches a critical value, a rapid change in the properties occurs, influenced by the film's inhomogeneity and size-effect contributions, leading to significant alterations in carrier scattering time, resistivity, optical loss, and transmission. The critical thickness serves as a key engineering metric for determining the maximum theoretical figure-of-merit for transparent conductors using thin metal films.
