Samples have been analysed to investigate their optical and electronic properties, crystal structure and the hardness of the layer. The formed layer was revealed to have potential applications as protective conducting glass in electronic displays. For this purpose, 2.5% Mg-doped CuCrO­2 delafossite target was prepared using solid-state reaction method. The target was then used to deposit a CuCrO2: Mg thin layer on quartz substrates using RF sputtering. The prepared thin film that can play the role of a positive electrode in displays has a transparency in the visible region of about 67%, an electrical conductivity of 10.5 Scm-1 and a mechanical hardness of about 950 Hv. }, URL = {http://opsi.ir/article-1-1668-en.html}, eprint = {http://opsi.ir/article-1-1668-en.pdf}, journal = {Accepted and Presented Articles of OPSI Conferences}, doi = {}, year = {2019} }
