In this paper we present the morphological, structural , optical and electrical properties of aluminium doped zinc oxide films prepared by spin coating technique from a zinc acetate dihydrate and 2 methoxyethanol (0.5M) solution. AlCl 3 and Al(NO 3 3 were used as doping agents in different concentrations (1at%, 4at% and 6at% in starting solution). After deposition, films were dried at 100 °C and then annealed at temperatures between 400 °C and 500 °C. The characterization of deposited layer was performed by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Atomic Force Micros copy (AFM) and UV Vis spectroscopy. The results show that the optical and electrical properties of the structures strongly depend on the deposition conditions of ZnO:Al. In addition, the resistivity can be easily varied depending on ZnO:Al annealing temper atures and Al concentration..

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.
