Patent ID: 8329253

Claim:
A method for forming a transparent conductive film, comprising: (a) providing atomic layer deposition equipment; (b) providing a substrate which is disposed in the atomic layer deposition equipment; (c) providing more than one kind of oxide precursor which is individually introduced into the atomic layer deposition equipment through different sources, wherein the oxide precursors are consecutively introduced into the atomic layer deposition equipment without interruption by an introducing step of the oxide precursors, so that the oxide precursors are simultaneously present in the atomic layer deposition equipment and the substrate is exposed to the more than one kind of oxide precursor simultaneously, to form a uniform mixture of oxide precursors in a single adsorbate layer for settling onto the substrate; (d) providing an oxidant which is introduced into the atomic layer deposition equipment for reacting with the oxide precursors to form a single multi-oxide atomic layer; (e) providing a single-oxide precursor which is introduced into the atomic layer deposition equipment and providing an oxidant for reacting with the single-oxide precursor to form a single-oxide atomic layer; and (f) repeating the steps of (c) to (e) to form a plurality of multi-oxide atomic layers and a plurality of single-oxide atomic layers.
