Abstract

The measurement of density-of-states effective mass and scattering parameters for transparent conductive oxide (TCO) thin films using second order transport phenomena was performed. The resistivity, Hall, Seebeck and Nernst coefficients were determined using Boltzmann transport equation. The density-of-states effective mass, the Fermi energy and scattering parameters of the TCO thin films were calculated from the transport coefficients.
