Transparent conducting p-type thin films of c-axis self-oriented Bi₂Sr₂Co₂O(y) with high figure of merit

Chem Commun (Camb). 2014 Sep 4;50(68):9697-9. doi: 10.1039/c4cc03800b.

Abstract

Transparent conducting p-type Bi2Sr2Co2O(y) thin films have been first grown on SrTiO3 substrates by a chemical solution deposition, showing c-axis self-orientation. The figure of merit can reach as high as 800 MΩ(-1), which is the highest value for p-type transparent conducting thin films by solution methods.
