摘    要:根据超声膨胀原理,n(10-10^4)个气体原子可以绝热冷却后凝聚在一起形成团簇,经过离化后,形成带一个电荷量的团簇离子,比如Arn^+.当团簇离子与固体材料相互作用时,由于平均每个原子携带的能量(~eV)较低,仅作用于材料浅表面区域,因此,气体团簇离子束是材料表面改性的优良选择.本文介绍了一台由武汉大学加速器实验室自主研制的气体团簇离子束装置,包括整体构造、工作原理及实验应用.中性团簇束由金属锥形喷嘴(F=65-135μm,q=14°)形成,平均尺寸为3000 atoms/cluster,经离化后,其离子束流达到了50μA.Ar团簇离子因其反应活性较低,本文运用Ar团簇离子(平均尺寸为1000 atoms/cluster)进行了平坦化和自组装纳米结构的研究.单晶硅片经Ar团簇离子束处理后,均方根粗糙度由初始的1.92 nm降低到0.5 nm,同时观察到了束流的清洁效应.利用Ar团簇离子束的倾斜(30°-60°)轰击,在宽大平坦的单晶ZnO基片上形成了纳米波纹,而在ZnO纳米棒表面则形成了有序的纳米台阶,同时,利用二维功率谱密度函数分析了纳米结构在基片上的表面形貌和特征分布,并计算了纳米波纹的尺寸和数量.

关 键 词:气体团簇离子束  表面平坦化  自组装纳米结构  功率谱密度函数

Abstract:A custom-built gas cluster ion source with energy up to 50 keV is constructed,and Ar,CO2,N2,and O2 are used as the working gases.The clusters are formed by a metal supersonic conical nozzle with critical diameter in a range of 65–135μm and a cone angle of 14°.The nozzle is powered in the pulsed mode,which improves the pumping conditions,and also makes it possible to increase the gas pressure in the stagnation zone to 15 atm and thereby obtain larger clusters.Based on the principle of ultrasonic expansion,gas cluster ions with an average size of 3000 atoms are obtained.The cluster beam current of 50μA is obtained.The Ar cluster beam,which is less reactive,is used for treating surface,namely,surface smoothing and formation of self-assembled nanostructures.The Ar cluster bombardment perpendicular to the surface of the substrate is used to demonstrate the smoothing of the surface of Si wafers,Ti coating,and Au film.For the initial Si wafer,its rootmean-square(RMS)roughness of 1.92 nm decreases down to 0.5 nm after cluster beam treatment.The cleaning effect of the cluster beam is also observed very well.The one-dimensional(1 D)isotropic power spectral density of the Si surface topography before and after smoothing are also discussed.The off-normal irradiation Ar cluster beam is also used to form self-assembled surface nanoripple arrays on the surface of flat ZnO single crystal substrates.The ripple formation is observed when the incident angle of the cluster beam is in a range of30°–60°.The process of nanoripple fabrication is significantly governed by the cluster beam incident angle,energy and dose.The nano-ripples formed on the flat substrates remain eolian sand ripples and their formation starts at the incident angle of 30°.The most developed nanoripples are observed at the incident angle within a range of 45°–60°.The surface morphology and characteristic distribution of the nano-structures on the flat ZnO substrate are also analyzed by the two-dimensional(2 D)power spectral density function.Next,Ar cluster beam is used for irradiating the ZnO nanorod arrays grown on the Si substrate.Due to various angles between the nanorod’s axis and the substrate normal,the conditions of the ripple formation on the nanorod facets are also realized.The dependence of wavelength on the accelerating voltage of the cluster ions and the dose are studied.Similar dependence of wavelength on accelerating voltage and dose are found for nanorods.Comparing with the flat ZnO surface,nanoripples on the ZnO nanorod faces at high irradiation doses demonstrate an ordering effect,and morphology of the ripples resembles that of more parallel steps rather than eolian ripples.
Keywords:gas cluster ion beam  surface smoothing  self-assembled nanostructures  power spectral density function
