The transmittance spectra of all samples were obtained and subsequently simulated by means of spectroscopic ellipsometry. The optical constants n and k of the films were extracted. With the annealing temperature increasing, the optical constants n and k of the films firstly decreased then increased in the whole investigated wavelength range. The optical band gaps of all films were evaluated and they varied between 3.74 and 3.93 eV.展开更多
