Wide-spectrum Mg and Ga co-doped ZnO transparent conductive oxide (TCO) thin films are deposited via magnetron sputtering at various H-2 flow rates on glass substrates. The structural, electrical, and optical properties of MGZO thin films are investigated with different H-2 flow rates. The experiment results show that the MGZO thin films are polycrystalline with a hexagonal wurtzite structure exhibiting a preferred (0 0 2) crystal plane orientation. The carrier concentration remarkably increases from 5.15 x 10(19) cm(-3) to 2.12 x 10(20) cm(-3) with increasing the H-2 flow rate from 0 sccm to 4.0 sccm and then decreases when further increasing the H-2 flow rate. The glass/MGZO thin film deposited at the H-2 flow rate of 4.0 sccm exhibits the lowest resistivity of 1.96 x 10(-3) Omega cm (film thickness d similar to 548 nm) and an average transmittance (Ta) of 80.5% in the wavelength range from 340 nm to 1100 nm. Optical measurements indicate that the optical band gap (E-g) of MGZO thin films varies from 3.45 eV to 3.78 eV with adjusting H-2 flow rate from 0 sccm to 12.0 sccm. The obtained MGZO thin films with an appropriate thickness are preliminarily applied in p-i-n type hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) thin film solar cells. The a-Si:H solar cell with MGZO layer presents higher quantum efficiency in the short wavelength region than that with GZO layer, resulting from widened optical band gap. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.
