Annealing effects on the optical and structural properties of Al2O3/SiO2 films as UV antireflection coatings on 4H-SiC substrates

Al₂O₃/SiO₂ films have been prepared by electron-beam evaporation as ultraviolet (UV) antireflection coatings on 4H-SiC substrates and annealed at different temperatures. The films were characterized by reflection spectra, ellipsometer system, atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), respectively. As the annealing temperature increased, the minimum reflectance of the films moved to the shorter wavelength for the variation of refractive indices and the reduction of film thicknesses. The surface grains appeared to get larger in size and the root mean square (RMS) roughness of the annealed films increased with the annealing temperature but was less than that of the as-deposited. The Al₂O₃/SiO₂ films maintained amorphous in microstructure with the increase of the temperature. Meanwhile, the transition and diffusion in film component were found in XPS measurement. These results provided the important references for Al₂O₃/SiO₂ films annealed at reasonable temperatures and prepared as fine antireflection coatings on 4H-SiC-based UV optoelectronic devices.     

Structural and optical properties of Au-implanted ZnO films

The structural and luminescence related optical behaviours of Au ion implanted ZnO films grown by magnetic sputtering and their post implantation annealing behaviours in the temperature range of 100-700 °C have been investigated. Optical absorption and transmittance spectra of the films indicate that band edge of Au-implanted ZnO has shifted to high energy range and optical band gap has increased, because the sharp difference of thermal expansion induces the lattice mismatch between ZnO and SiO₂. PL spectra reveal that UV and visible luminescence bands of ZnO films can be improved after thermal annealing due to recovery of defects and Au ions incorporation. Importantly, green luminescence band of 530 nm has been only observed in the Au-implanted and subsequently annealed ZnO films and it enhances with the increasing annealing temperature, which can be related to Au atoms or clusters in ZnO films. Furthermore, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements reveal that the Au⁰ is dominant state in Au implanted and annealed ZnO films. Possible mechanisms, such as optical transitions of Au atoms or clusters and deep level luminescence of ZnO, have been proposed for green emission.     

Size dependence of non-linear optical properties of SiO2 thin films containing InP nanocrystals

SiO₂ composite thin films containing InP nanocrystals were fabricated by radio-frequency magnetron co-sputtering technique. The microstructure of the composite thin films was characterized by X-ray diffraction and Raman spectrum. The optical absorption band edges exhibit marked blueshift with respect to bulk InP due to strong quantum confinement effect. Non-linear optical absorption and non-linear optical refraction were studied by a Z-scan technique using a single Gaussian beam of a He-Ne laser (632.8 nm). We observed the saturation absorption and two-photon absorption in the composite films. An enhanced third-order non-linear optical absorption coefficient and non-linear optical refractive index were achieved in the composite films. The nonlinear optical properties of the films display the dependence on InP nanocrystals size. Received: 27 June 2000 / Accepted: 27 June 2000 / Published online: 13 September 2000     

Microstructure and interfacial properties of HfO2-Al2O3 nanolaminate films

High-k HfO₂-Al₂O₃ composite gate dielectric thin films on Si(1 0 0) have been deposited by means of magnetron sputtering. The microstructure and interfacial characteristics of the HfO₂-Al₂O₃ films have been investigated by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE). Analysis by XRD has confirmed that an amorphous structure of the HfO₂-Al₂O₃ composite films is maintained up to an annealing temperature of 800 °C, which is much higher than that of pure HfO₂ thin films. FTIR characterization indicates that the growth of the interfacial SiO₂ layer is effectively suppressed when the annealing temperature is as low as 800 °C, which is also confirmed by spectroscopy ellipsometry measurement. These results clearly show that the crystallization temperature of the nanolaminate HfO₂-Al₂O₃ composite films has been increased compared to pure HfO₂ films. Al₂O₃ as a passivation barrier for HfO₂ high-k dielectrics prevents oxygen diffusion and the interfacial layer growth effectively.     

Characterization of In/Pd and Pd/In/Pd thin films by ellipsometric, XRD and AES methods

In/Pd and Pd/In/Pd thin films were prepared by thermal evaporation on the SiO₂ substrate in a vacuum. The structural and optical properties of the films were investigated by means of X-ray diffractometry (XRD), Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE). Auger depth profile studies were performed in order to determine the composition of elements in the Pd-In systems. Interdiffusion of metals was detected at room temperature. Optical properties of Pd-In composite layers formed due to the interdiffusion were derived from ellipsometric quantities Ψ and Δ measured in the photon energy range 0.75-6.50 eV at different angles of incidence. The effective optical spectra show absorption peaks dependent on the composition of nonuniform films. The XRD patterns indicated formation of Pd_1−xIn_x intermetallic phases in the samples.     

Synthesis of Ge nanocrystals by atom beam sputtering and subsequent rapid thermal annealing

Ge nanocrystals embedded in an SiO₂ matrix were prepared by the atom beam co-sputtering (ABS) method from a composite target of Ge and SiO₂. The as-deposited films were rapid thermally annealed at the temperatures 700 and 800 °C in nitrogen ambience. The structure of the films was evaluated by using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy. XRD results reveal that as-deposited films are amorphous in nature whereas annealed samples show crystalline nature. Raman scattering spectra showed a peak of Ge–Ge vibrational mode shifted downwards to 297 cm^?1, presumably caused by quantum confinement of phonons in the Ge nanocrystals. Rutherford backscattering spectrometry has been used to measure the thickness and Ge composition of the composite films. Size variation of Ge nanocrystals with annealing temperature has been discussed. The advantages of ABS over other methods are highlighted.     

Characterization of chemically deposited ZnSe/SnO2/glass films: Influence of annealing in Ar atmosphere on physical properties

The Zinc Selenide (ZnSe) thin films have been deposited on SnO₂/glass substrates by a simple and inexpensive chemical bath deposition (CBD). The structural, optical and electrical properties of ZnSe films have been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Energy Dispersive X-ray Analysis (EDAX), optical absorption spectroscopy, and four point probe techniques, respectively. The films have been subjected to different annealing temperature in Argon (Ar) atmosphere. An increase in annealing temperature does not cause a complete phase transformation whereas it affects the crystallite size, dislocation density and strain. The optical band gap (E_g) of the as-deposited film is estimated to be 3.08 eV and decreases with increasing annealing temperature down to 2.43 eV at 773 K. The as-deposited and annealed films show typical semiconducting behaviour, dρ/dT > 0. Interestingly, the films annealed at 373 K, 473 K, and 573 K show two distinct temperature dependent regions of electrical resistivity; exponential region at high temperature, linear region at low temperature. The temperature at which the transition takes place from exponential to linear region strongly depends on the annealing temperature.     

Effects of rapid thermal annealing on the morphology and optical properity of ultrathin InSb film deposited on SiO2/Si substrate

Ultrathin InSb thin films on SiO₂/Si substrates are prepared by radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering and rapid thermal annealing (RTA) at 300, 400, and 500℃, respectively. X-ray diffraction (XRD) indicates that InSb film treated by RTA at 500℃, which is higher than its melting temperature (about 485℃), shows a monocrystalline-like feature. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) micrograph shows that melt recrystallization of InSb film on SiO₂/Si(111) substrate is along the (111) planes. The transmittances of InSb films decrease and the optical band gaps redshift from 0.24 eV to 0.19 eV with annealing temperature increasing from 300℃ to 500℃, which is indicated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) measurement. The observed changes demonstrate that RAT is a viable technique for improving characteristics of InSb films, especially the melt-recrystallized film treated by RTA at 500℃.     

Effect of post annealing temperature on structural and optical properties of ZnCdO thin films deposited by sol–gel method

Ternary ZnCdO thin films oriented along c-axis have been successfully deposited on p-Si (1 0 0) substrates using sol–gel spin coating route. To optimize most suitable annealing temperature for the Zn_1−xCd_xO thin films; these films with selected cadmium content x = 0.10 were treated at annealing temperatures from 300 °C up to 800 °C in oxygen ambient after deposition. The structural and optical properties of deposited thin films have been characterized by X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, UV–Vis spectroscopy, and photoluminescence spectra. The results show that the obtained films possess high crystallinity with wurtzite structure. The crystallite size, lattice parameters, lattice strain and stress in the deposited films are determined from X-ray diffraction analysis. The band gap energy increased as a function of annealing temperatures as observed from optical reflectance spectra of samples. The presence of Cd in the deposited films is confirmed by energy dispersive spectrum and it is observed that Cd re-evaporate from the lattice with annealing. The photoluminescence measurements as performed at room temperature did not exhibit any luminescence related to oxygen vacancies defects for lower annealing temperatures, as normally displayed by ZnO films. The green yellow luminescence associated to these defects was observed at higher annealing temperatures (≥700 °C).
