Preparation and Ultraviolet Detection Performance of Ga2O3 Thin Films
) thin films were depsited by radio frequency magnetron sputtering on sapphire(0001) substrates with a range of substrate temperatures from 500 to 1 000 ℃. The norphological characteristics
optical bandgaps
electrical properties and photoresponsivity of the grown thin films were researched.With the increasing of the growth temperature
the crystallinity and conductivity of the films increase at first and then decrease slightly. Ultraviolet-visible spectra indicate that the transmittance of -Ga

and it's absorption edge is located at about 255 nm
