Zinc Oxide (ZnO) thin films have been deposited onto glass and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates at room temperature by thermal evaporation technique in a vacuum of about 3 x 10-5 torr. The effects of deposition on the structural, optical, and electrical properties of ZnO films were investigated. The topography of the ZnO thin films were examined by atomic force microscopy (AFM). The surface conductivity of the materials was analyzed using a four-probe meter. The optical transmission method using ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer determines the refractive index n, reflectance R and energy gap of the ZnO on glass and ZnO on PET thin 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.
