文摘
- •
La-doped SnO2 has been synthesized by the facile spray pyrolysis method.
- •
Influences of doping on the electrical and optical properties of the films were investigated.
- •
La doped SnO2 films exhibit high transparency in the visible range and low sheet resistance.
- •
The calculated values of Haacke's figure of merit show that La doping improves the optoelectronic properties of SnO2.
- •
A new figure of merit has been introduced to qualify the photo-thermal conversion applications.
