Abstract
ZnO thin films have been deposited by laser ablation of Zn targets in oxygen reactive atmosphere. A KrF laser (lambda = 248 nm, tau(FWHM) = 20 ns) and a YAG laser (lambda = 1.06 mu m, tau(FWHM) = 10 ns) were us ed as laser sources and Coming glass, silicon wafers and sapphire plat es were used as collectors, respectively. The crystalline structure, s urface morphology, optical, piezoelectric and acoustical properties of the deposited films are comparable acid, in certain conditions, super iors to that obtained by other techniques.
