Thin films of zinc oxide (ZnO) were prepared on cleaned glass substrate by a solution of zinc acetate in a carrier gas of air using spray pyrolysis technique. Then the prepared films were subjected to gamma radiation at different dose levels. Before and after gamma radiation, the optical, structural and electrical properties were studied. From UV results, it was found that the optical band gap decreases with the gamma radiation dose. XRD pattern revealed the poly crystalline nature of the sample and illustrated that the crystalline nature of the sample increases with gamma radiation dosages. Electrical studies showed the increase in current with respect to the applied gamma radiation dose..

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
