AB  - In optoelectronic and photovoltaic devices, transparent conductive oxides are important in establishing a good electrical contact while minimizing optical losses over a broad range of wavelengths (400-1200 nm). To date, research has focused on In2O3- SnO2 (ITO) films. In this paper, we report on a study of Ga-doped ITO (GITO) films, which in contrast to standard ITO 90/10 (i.e. In:Sn = 90:10) films contain less In. Initially, we describe the development of a multicomponent Ga-In-Sn oxide target with a Ga:In:Sn ratio of 4:64:32, which was used in a radio frequency sputtering system to deposit GITO thin films on glass substrates. Furthermore, we describe the microstructural/structural (scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction spectroscopy), optical (wavelength dependent complex refractive indices) and electrical (resistivity, mobility, free carrier density) measurements used to optimize sputtering conditions and post-annealing processing. As well as achieving an optimized/improved GITO thin film deposited at high substrate and annealing temperatures, we obtained promising thin GITO films with excellent optical properties and with relatively low resistivity (1.7 m Omega cm) deposited and annealed at temperatures around 200 degrees C.
