Transparent conducting antimony-doped tin oxide SnO2:Sb films were prepared on glass substrates by e-beam evaporation technique. The effect of Sb-content and annealing temperature on the optical, electrical and structural properties of the formed films were investigated. The as-deposited films show amorphous structure and low transmittance that increased with increasing Sb-content. Upon annealing, the film ordering increases. The annealed (SnO2)100–xSbx (x= 3 wt%) films show minimum resistivity of ~ 6 × 10-3 Ω cm at temperature 400 oC and their transmittance exceedes 84 % in the visible region. The other parameters such as free carrier concentrations, refractive index, Urbach energy were calculated for asdeposited and annealed films.

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.
