Structural and electrical properties of ZnO: Al 0.01 P 0.04 thin films were investigated with respect to the growth temperature of the ZnO buffer layers deposited by RF magnetron sputtering. The ZnO buffer layers on c-plane sapphires showed three different types of in-plane orientation relationships between ZnO and Al 2 O 3 at different growth temperatures: ZnO [10 1 ̅ 0]//Al 2 O 3 [10 1 ̅ 0] at 200° C, a mixture of ZnO [10 1 ̅ 0]//Al 2 O 3 [10 1 ̅ 0] and ZnO [10 1 ̅ 0]//Al 2 O 3 [11 2 ̅ 0] at 300° C, and ZnO [10 1 ̅ 0]//Al 2 O 3 [11 2 ̅ 0] at 600° C. The in-plane orientation of the ZnO: Al 0.01 P 0.04 thin film followed the orientation of the ZnO buffer layer regardless of its growth temperature. The ZnO: Al 0.01 P 0.04 film grown on a ZnO buffer layer deposited at 600° C had a carrier concentration of 1.18× 10 16 cm− 3, mobility of 7.16× 10° cm 2/(V s), and resistivity of 7.36× 10 1 Ω cm, indicating p-type characteristics.
