Abstract
Zinc oxide (ZnO), a direct bandgap semiconductor, provides tremendous promise in various applications, such as optical waveguides, clear conductive oxides, and chemical gas sensors. It is also used in UV-light emitters, piezoelectric transducers. ZnO is in various forms, such as nanoparticles, Nano-belts, Nano-rods, nano-tubes, and nanowires. The purpose of this research is to review a general overview of ZnO and its application, the use of ZnO as an anti-reflection coating with various styles on the solar cells, and the conventional and unconventional techniques that had been used to coating the anti-reflection layers on the solar cell will be reviewed. This is based on a review of previous studies related to applications of anti-reflective coatings of ZnO and make a comparison of practical results was obtained with different semiconductor materials (SIC, TiO2, ZnS, SiO2, SiN4).
