超声处理对ZnO薄膜光致发光特性的影响

对于结晶状态好的ZnO薄膜，测量了其光致发光(PL)光谱，发射光谱中只发现了峰值波长约389 nm的近紫外光.样品进行超声处理后，发射谱中不仅观察到近紫外峰，又观察到波长约508 nm的绿光峰.绿光峰的强度比近紫外光的强度强得多，且近紫外峰红移.进一步的热处理使绿光峰大大增强.超声处理改变了ZnO薄膜的质量和结晶状态，使晶格中产生氧空位.处理过程中的热效应使得薄膜晶格振动加剧.当晶格振动加剧到一定程度，晶格中的氧脱离格点形成氧空位.510 nm左右的绿色发光峰是ZnO晶体中的氧空位产生的.薄膜的温度越高， 关键词： ZnO薄膜 超声 光致发光

采用直流反应磁控溅射法,在玻璃衬底上生长了沿(002)择优取向的AlN薄膜,用X射线衍射仪(XRD)和扫描电子显微镜(SEM)对AlN薄膜结构和表面形貌进行表征,并测量了AlN薄膜在405 nm激光激发下的光致发光(PL)光谱。结果表明,在不同氮气含量条件下生长的AlN薄膜均呈(002)择优取向,薄膜表面呈小颗粒密堆积排列,颗粒尺寸在20 nm左右。不同氮气含量条件下生长的AlN薄膜在550 nm处均有较强的由于V_(Al)能级向价带跃迁引起的缺陷能级发光峰;AlN薄膜在589,614,654 nm处也有较弱的缺陷能级发光峰,随着氮气含量增大,缺陷能级发光峰越来越明显,产生原因分别为O_N-O_N缺陷对向V_(Al)-2O_N产生的复合缺陷能级的跃迁、导带向与氧有关的杂质能级(I_O)间的跃迁以及V_(Al)-O_N深能级向价带的跃迁。     

聚氧化乙烯表面修饰对ZnO光学性质的影响

利用聚氧化乙烯(PEO)对ZnO表面进行修饰,研究有机包覆对ZnO光学性质的影响。用吸收光谱和光致发光光谱来表征和研究PEO包覆对ZnO纳米粒子光学性质的影响。吸收光谱结果表明随着ZnO薄膜中PEO含量的增加,激子吸收峰逐渐向低能侧方向移动。光致发光光谱是由紫外发射和与氧空位有关的深能级缺陷发光组成,且随着ZnO薄膜中PEO含量的增加,紫外发射与深能级发光强度之比逐渐增大,当ZnO薄膜中的PEO达到最大值时,其比值为31．5,远远大于纯ZnO薄膜的紫外发射与深能级发光强度之比1．04。由此可见,ZnO被PEO包覆后,提高了紫外发光效率,改善了ZnO薄膜的质量。

磁控溅射制备ZnO薄膜的结构及发光特性研究

采用射频反应磁控溅射法在玻璃衬底上制备出具有c轴高择优取向的ZnO薄膜,利用X射线衍射、扫描探针显微镜及荧光分光光度法研究了生长温度对ZnO薄膜微观结构及光致发光特性的影响。结果表明,合适的衬底温度有利于提高ZnO薄膜的结晶质量;在室温下测量样品的光致发光谱(PL),观察到波长位于400 nm左右的紫光、446 nm左右的蓝色发光峰及502 nm左右微弱的绿光峰,随衬底温度升高,样品的PL谱中紫光及蓝光强度逐渐增大,同时,绿光峰的强度也表现出一定程度的增强。经分析得出紫光应是激子发光所致,而锌填隙则是引起蓝光发射的主要原因,502 nm左右的绿光峰应该是氧的深能级缺陷造成的。此外,还测量了样品的吸收谱,并结合样品吸收谱的拟合结果对光致发光机理的分析作了进一步的验证。

MBE生长ZnO薄膜的结构和光学特性的研究

用等离子体源辅助分子束外延(P-MBE)方法在蓝宝石(0001)面上生长出了高质量的ZnO薄膜,并对其结构和发光特性进行了研究。在XRD中只观察到ZnO薄膜的(0002)衍射峰,其半高宽(FWHM)值为0.18°;而在共振Raman散射光谱中观测到1LO(579 cm-1 )和2LO(1 152 cm-1 )两个峰位,这些结果表明ZnO薄膜具有单一c轴取向和高质量的纤维锌矿晶体结构。在吸收光谱中观测到自由激子吸收和激子-LO声子吸收峰,这表明在ZnO薄膜中激子稳定的存在于室温,并且两峰之间能量间隔为71.2 meV,与文献上报道的ZnO纵向光学声子能量(71 meV)相符。室温下在光致发光光谱(PL)中仅观测到位于376 nm处的自由激子发光峰,而没有观测到与缺陷相关的深能级发射峰,表明ZnO薄膜具有较高的质量和低的缺陷密度。     

Effects of temperature and atmosphere on the magnetic properties of Co-doped ZnO rods

Co-doped ZnO (Zn_0.95Co_0.05O) rods are fabricated by co-precipitation method at different temperatures and atmospheres. X-ray diffraction, Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and Raman results indicate that the samples were crystalline with wurtzite structure and no metallic Co or other secondary phases were found. Raman results indicate that the Co-doped ZnO powders annealed at different temperatures have different oxygen vacancy concentrations. The oxygen vacancies play an important role in the magnetic origin for diluted magnetic semiconductors. At low oxygen vacancy concentration, room temperature ferromagnetism is presented in Co-doped ZnO rods, and the ferromagnetism increases with the increment of oxygen vacancy concentration. But at very high oxygen vacancy concentration, large paramagnetic or antiferromagnetic effects are observed in Co-doped ZnO rods due to the ferromagnetic-antiferromagnetic competition. In addition, the sample annealed in Ar gas has better magnetic properties than that annealed in air, which indicates that O₂ plays an important role. Therefore, the ferromagnetism is affected by the amounts of structural defects, which depend sensitively on atmosphere and annealing temperature.     

Effect of annealing temperature and annealing atmosphere on the structure and optical properties of ZnO thin films on sapphire (0 0 0 1) substrates by magnetron sputtering

ZnO thin films were epitaxially grown on sapphire (0 0 0 1) substrates by radio frequency magnetron sputtering. ZnO thin films were then annealed at different temperatures in air and in various atmospheres at 800 °C, respectively. The effect of the annealing temperature and annealing atmosphere on the structure and optical properties of ZnO thin films are investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), photoluminescence (PL). A strong (0 0 2) diffraction peak of all ZnO thin films shows a polycrystalline hexagonal wurtzite structure and high preferential c-axis orientation. XRD and AFM results reveal that the better structural quality, relatively smaller tensile stress, smooth, uniform of ZnO thin films were obtained when annealed at 800 °C in N₂. Room temperature PL spectrum can be divided into the UV emission and the Visible broad band emission. The UV emission can be attributed to the near band edge emission (NBE) and the Visible broad band emission can be ascribed to the deep level emissions (DLE). By analyzing our experimental results, we recommend that the deep-level emission correspond to oxygen vacancy (V_O) and interstitial oxygen (O_i). The biggest ratio of the PL intensity of UV emission to that of visible emission (I_NBE/I_DLE) is observed from ZnO thin films annealed at 800 °C in N₂. Therefore, we suggest that annealing temperature of 800 °C and annealing atmosphere of N₂ are the most suitable annealing conditions for obtaining high quality ZnO thin films with good luminescence performance.     

CVD两步法生长ZnO薄膜及其光致发光特性

用CVD两步法在常压下于p型Si(100)衬底上沉积出具有较好择优取向的多晶ZnO薄膜。在325nm波长的光激发下,室温下可观察到显著的紫外光发射(峰值波长381nm)。高温退火后氧空位缺陷浓度增加,出现了一个450~600nm的绿光发光带,发光峰值在510nm。作为比较,用一步法生长的ZnO薄膜结晶质量稍差。在其PL谱中不仅有峰值波长389nm的紫外发射而且还出现了一个很强的蓝光发光中心(峰值波长437nm),退火后同样产生绿光发光带。对这两种绿光发光带的发光机制进行了研究,认为前者源于VO,而后者与O_Zn有密切的关系。

Al掺杂原子分数及退火温度对ZnO薄膜光学特性的影响

 采用溶胶凝胶法在（0001）Al₂O₃衬底上制备了不同掺杂原子分数的ZnO:Al薄膜，在Ar气氛中进行了600～950 ℃不同温度的退火处理，研究了掺杂原子分数和退火温度对薄膜光致发光、光吸收和透射的影响。结果显示，薄膜的紫外峰强度随掺杂原子分数和退火温度的提高而增强，与缺陷相关的绿光强度却随着掺杂原子分数和退火温度的提高而降低；薄膜光学带隙随掺杂原子分数的提高从3.21 eV增大到3.25 eV；光吸收在可见光区随着退火温度的升高而增大，在紫外区却随着退火温度的升高而减小，透射与吸收的变化规律相反；薄膜吸收边随退火温度的升高出现轻微的红移。     

Influence of post-deposition annealing on the structural,optical and electrical properties of Li and Mg co-doped ZnO thin films deposited by sol–gel technique

Lithium (Li) and magnesium (Mg) co-doped zinc oxide (ZnO) thin films were deposited by sol–gel method using spin coating technique. The films were deposited on glass substrates and annealed at different temperatures. The effects of annealing temperature on the structural, optical and electrical properties of the deposited films were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Ultraviolet–Visible absorption spectra (UV–VIS), photoluminescence spectra (PL), X-ray photo electron spectroscopy (XPS) and Hall measurements. XRD patterns indicated that the deposited films had a polycrystalline hexagonal wurtzite structure with preferred (0 0 0 2) orientation. All films were found to exhibit a good transparency in the visible range. Analysis of the absorption edge revealed that the optical band gap energies of the films annealed at different temperatures varies between 3.49 eV and 3.69 eV. Room temperature PL spectra of the deposited films annealed at various temperatures consist of a near band edge emission and visible emission due to the electronic defects, which are related to deep level emissions, such as oxide antisite (O_Zn), interstitial zinc (Zn_i), interstitial oxygen (O_i) and zinc vacancy (V_Zn) which are generated during annealing process. The influence of annealing temperature on the chemical state of the dopants in the film was analysed by XPS spectra. Ion beam analysis (Rutherford back scattering) experiments were performed to evaluate the content of Li and Mg in the films. Hall measurements confirmed the p-type nature of the deposited films.     

Vacancy defects in (Zn, Mn)O

We have used positron annihilation spectroscopy to study the vacancy defects in (Zn, Mn)O crystals grown by chemical vapor transport (CVT). Our results show that Zn vacancies are present in both as-grown and high temperature annealed ZnO and Zn_0.985Mn_0.015O. In addition, we observe O vacancies in ZnO with no Mn. After annealing in O₂ at 1000 C, there is no change in the vacancy distribution in ZnO, while the Zn vacancy concentration increases by an order of magnitude in Zn_0.985Mn_0.015O.     

Effects of Annealing Temperature on Structural and Optical Properties of ZnO Thin Films

The effects of annealing temperature on the structural and optical properties of ZnO films grown on Si （100） substrates by sol-gel spin-coating are investigated. The structural and optical properties are characterized by x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and photoluminescence spectra. X-ray diffraction analysis shows the crystal quality of ZnO films becomes better after annealing at high temperature. The grain size increases with the temperature increasing. It is found that the tensile stress in the plane of ZnO films first increases and then decreases with the annealing temperature increasing, reaching the maximum value of 1.8 GPa at 700℃. PL spectra of ZnO films annealed at various temperatures consists of a near band edge emission around 380 nm and visible emissions due to the electronic defects, which are related to deep level emissions, such as oxide antisite （OZn）, interstitial oxygen （Oi）, interstitial zinc （Zni） and zinc vacancy （VZn^-）, which are generated during annealing process. The evolution of defects is analyzed by PL spectra based on the energy of the electronic transitions.     

Photoluminescence and absorption in sol-gel-derived ZnO films

Highly c-axis-oriented ZnO films were obtained on corning glass substrate by sol-gel technique. The characteristics of photoluminescence (PL) of ZnO, as well as the exciton absorption in the absorption (UV) spectra are closely related to the post-annealing treatment. The difference between PL peak position and the absorption edge, designated as Stokes shift, is found to decrease with the increase of annealing temperature. The minimum Stokes shift is about 150 meV. The decrease of Stokes shift is attributed to the decrease in carrier concentration in ZnO film with annealing. X-ray diffraction, surface morphology and refractive index results indicate an improvement in crystalline quality with annealing. Annealed films also exhibit a green emission centered at ∼520 nm with activation energy of 0.89 eV. The green emission is attributed to the electron transition from the bottom of the conduction band to the antisite oxygen O_Zn defect levels.     

Post-annealing influence on properties of N-In codoped ZnO thin films prepared by ion beam enhanced deposition method

N-In codoped ZnO thin films were prepared by ion beam enhanced deposition method (IBED) and were annealed in nitrogen and oxygen ambient after deposition. The influence of post-annealing on structure, electrical and optical properties of thin films were investigated. As-deposited and all post-annealed samples showed preferential orientation along (0 0 2) plane. Electrical property studies indicated that the as-deposited ZnO film showed p-type with a sheet resistance of 67.5 kΩ. For ZnO films annealed in nitrogen with the annealing temperature increasing from 400 to 800 °C, the conduction type of the ZnO film changed from p-type to n-type. However, for samples annealed in oxygen the resistance increased sharply even at a low annealing temperature of 400 °C and the conduction type did not change. Room temperature PL spectra of samples annealed in N₂ and in O₂ showed UV peak located at 381 and 356 nm, respectively.
