Abstract: AlSb thin films are prepared using two-stage processes.Al and Sb are deposited onto a glass substrate by magnetron sputtering to produce Al/Sb prefabricated films.The prefabricated films become polycrystalline after being annealed at 560℃ in argon atmosphere.Different film structures and compositions are characterized by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy.It is found that the polycrystalline AlSb films are uniformly packed with a grain size of about 20nm.Conductance activation energies of 0.21 and 0.321eV are obtained from the dark conductivity temperature curves.This will be useful for future fabrication of AlSb solar cells.

Key words: AlSb polycrystalline thin films magnetron sputtering annealing solar cell
