在200 ℃下利用激光沉积技术分别在玻璃和Si(100)上沉积制备了ZnS薄膜,并在300,400,500 ℃下退火1 h。用X射线衍射(XRD)仪、紫外/可见光/近红外分光光度计、台阶仪和原子力显微镜(AFM)分别对不同衬底上样品的特征进行了观察。结果表明,玻璃上的ZnS薄膜只在28.5°附近存在着(111)方向的高度取向生长。在可见光范围内透射率为60%~90%。计算显示薄膜的光学带隙在3.46~3.53 eV之间,其小于体材料带隙的原因在于硫元素的缺失。根据光学带隙判断薄膜是单晶立方结构的β-ZnS。Si(100)上生长的是多晶ZnS薄膜:500 ℃下退火后,表面也比未退火表面更加平整致密,变化规律与ZnS/glass的类似。说明高温下退火可以有效地促进晶粒的结合并改善薄膜质量。     

Indirect to direct gap transition in low-dimensional nanostructures of Silicon and Germanium

The electronic band structures of Si and Ge low-dimensional nanostructure such as nanofilms and nanowires have been calculated using first principles based on density functional theory (DFT) with the generalized gradient approximation (GGA). The calculation results show that a direct band gap can be obtained from Si orientation [100] or in Ge orientation [111] confined low dimensional nanostructure. However, an indirect band gap is still kept in the Si orientation [111] or in the Ge orientation [110] confined low dimensional nanostructure. The calculation results are interesting and the transition mechanism from indirect to direct band gap in low dimensional nanostructures is given in the physical structures model.     

Band structure of silicon and germanium thin films based on first principles

In nanomaterials, optical anisotropies reveal a fundamental relationship between structural and optical properties, in which directional optical properties can be exploited to enhance the performance of optoelectronic devices. First principles calculation based on density functional theory(DFT) with the generalized gradient approximation(GGA) are carried out to investigate the energy band gap structure on silicon(Si) and germanium(Ge) nanofilms. Simulation results show that the band gaps in Si(100) and Ge(111) nanofilms become the direct-gap structure in the thickness range less than 7.64 nm and7.25 nm respectively, but the band gaps of Si(111) and Ge(110) nanofilms still keep in an indirect-gap structure and are independent on film thickness, and the band gaps of Si(110) and Ge(100) nanofilms could be transferred into the direct-gap structure in nanofilms with smaller thickness. It is amazing that the band gaps of Si~((1-x)/2)Ge~xSi~((1-x)/2)sandwich structure become the direct-gap structure in a certain area whether(111) or(100) surface. The band structure change of Si and Ge thin films in three orientations is not the same and the physical mechanism is very interesting, where the changes of the band gaps on the Si and Ge nanofilms follow the quantum confinement effects.     

Chlorine/silicon surface reactions under heating

Reactions on Cl-adsorbed Si(111) and Si(100) surfaces—(Cl/Si(111) and Cl/Si(100))—under heating in ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) and in a Cl₂ atmosphere were studied. Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and low-energy electron energy loss spectroscopy (LEELS) were used for examination of surface changes. Heating in UHV at 820°C for 30 s successfully removed almost all Cl atoms, both on Cl/Si(111) and Cl/Si(100). Variance in LEELS spectra shows that decomposition of SiCl_x (x > 1), a small amount of which was present on Cl/Si(111), occurs under heating on Si(111) both in UHV and in Cl₂ and desorbs reaction products, leaving the Si---Cl bonds on the surfaces. Such Si---Cl bonds specific to those on Cl/Si(111) are formed also on Cl/Si(100) heated in C1₂ at 820°C. On Cl/Si(100) heated in C1₂, there are various surface changes: relaxation of the 2 × 1 structure remaining on the Cl/Si(100), desorption of reaction products, and formation of Si---Cl bonds specific to those on Cl/Si(111). The Si---Cl bonds, both on Cl/Si(111) and Cl/Si(100), decomposed under longer heating and under heating at higher temperatures in UHV.

Disproportionation phenomena on free and strained Sn/Ge(111) and Sn/Si(111) surfaces

Distortions of the sqrt[3]x sqrt[3] Sn/Ge(111) and Sn/Si(111) surfaces are shown to reflect a disproportionation of an integer pseudocharge, Q, related to the surface band occupancy. A novel understanding of the (3 x 3)-1U ("1 up, 2 down") and 2U ("2 up, 1 down") distortions of Sn/Ge(111) is obtained by a theoretical study of the phase diagram under strain. Positive strain keeps the unstrained value Q=3 but removes distortions. Negative strain attracts pseudocharge from the valence band causing first a (3 x 3)-2U distortion (Q=4) on both Sn/Ge and Sn/Si, and eventually a (sqrt[3] x sqrt[3])-3U ("all up") state with Q=6. The possibility of a fluctuating phase in unstrained Sn/Si(111) is discussed.     

Reflectometric study of surface states and oxygen adsorption on clean Si(100) and (110) surfaces

External differential reflection measurements were carried out on clean Si(100) and (110) surfaces in the photon energy range of 1.0 to 3.0 eV at 300 and 80 K. The results for Si(100) at 300 K showed two peaks in the joint density of states curve, which sharpened at 80 K. One peak at 3.0 ± 0.2 eV can be attributed to optical transitions from a filled surface states band near the top of the valence band to empty bulk conduction band levels. The other peak at 1.60 ± 0.05 eV may be attributed to transitions to an empty surface states band in the energy gap. This result favours the asymmetric dimer model for the Si(100) surface. For the (110) surface at 300 K only one peak was found at 3.0 ± 0.2 eV. At 80 K the peak height diminished by a factor of two. Oxygen adsorption in the submonolayer region on the clean Si(100) surface appeared to proceed in a similar way as on the Si(111) 7 × 7 surface. For the Si(110) surface the kinetics of the adsorption process at 80 K deviated clearly. The binding state of oxygen on this surface at 80 K appeared to be different from that on the same surface at 300 K.     

Secondary ion emission processes of sputtered alkali ions from alkali/Si(100) and Si(111)

The secondary alkali ion yield vs. the work function change (Δφ) of Na, K and Cs/Si(100) and Si(111) was measured to discuss the details of secondary ion emission processes. In the case of alkali/metal systems, the secondary ion emission is explained by the electron tunneling model. In this model, the ionization of the ejected atom occurs as a result of electron resonant tunneling through the potential barrier separating an atom and a metal, and the secondary ion yield depends on exponentially the work function change of metal surface. For alkali/Si(100) systems, the secondary ion emission processes are explained in terms of the electron tunneling model since the secondary alkali ion yield vs. the work function change (Δφ) follows the exponential manner. However, it is not easy to apply the simple electron tunneling model to our experimental results for alkali/Si(111) systems. There is the essential difference in surface structures between Si(100) and Si(111). Therefore, it is suggested that the local electronic environment around the adsorbates might be taken into consideration for alkali/Si(111) systems.
