    Abstract: A method for depositing zinc oxide on a substrate is disclosed. In an embodiment, the method includes reducing, in a first stage, a source material comprising zinc oxide to zinc which is gaseous at reaction conditions by contacting the source material with a gaseous reducing agent, transporting, in a second stage locally separate from the first stage, the gaseous zinc to the substrate, wherein the gaseous zinc is converted to zinc oxide by adding an oxidizing agent; and depositing the zinc oxide on a surface of the substrate, wherein the gaseous reducing agent is methane or a thermal decomposition product of at least one precursor, which is thermally decomposed at the reaction conditions of the first stage so that methane, methyl radicals and/or acetone is released.
