SiC外延层表面的化学态结构为Si(CH₂)₄,SiO(CH₂)₃,SiO₂(CH₃)₂,SiO₃(CH₃),Si—Si,游离H₂O,缔合OH,Si—OH,O和O₂. 根据化学态结构和元素电负性确定了化学态的各原子芯电子束缚能顺序,并与XPS窄扫描谱拟合结果相对比,建立了化学态与其束缚能的对应关系,进而用Si(CH₂)₄的实际C 1s束缚能值进行校正,确定了各化学态的束缚能. 结果发现,除了SiC_xO_y(x=1,2,3,4,x+y=4)的Si 2p束缚能彼此不同外,其C 1s和O 1s彼此也不相同,其中SiO₂(CH₃)₂和SiO₃(CH₃)的C 1s束缚能与CH_m和C—O中C 1s的相近,对此从化学态结构,元素电负性和邻位效应进行了解释. 关键词： SiC 化学态 XPS FTIR

Microstructural and compositional characteristics of GaN films grown on a ZnO-buffered Si (111) wafer

Polycrystalline GaN thin films have been deposited epitaxially on a ZnO-buffered (111)-oriented Si substrate by molecular beam epitaxy. The microstructural and compositional characteristics of the films were studied by analytical transmission electron microscopy (TEM). A SiO(2) amorphous layer about 3.5 nm in thickness between the Si/ZnO interface has been identified by means of spatially resolved electron energy loss spectroscopy. Cross-sectional and plan-view TEM investigations reveal (GaN/ZnO/SiO(2)/Si) layers exhibiting definite a crystallographic relationship: [111](Si)//[111](ZnO)//[0001](GaN) along the epitaxy direction. GaN films are polycrystalline with nanoscale grains ( approximately 100 nm in size) grown along [0001] direction with about 20 degrees between the (1l00) planes of adjacent grains. A three-dimensional growth mode for the buffer layer and the film is proposed to explain the formation of the as-grown polycrystalline GaN films and the functionality of the buffer layer.

Effects of substrate on surface morphology, crystallinity, and photoluminescence properties of sputtered ZnO nano films

Effects of substrate on crystallinity, surface morphology, and luminescence properties of radio frequency sputtered zinc oxide (ZnO) thin films were investigated. A variety of materials such as Si (100), Si (111), Al₂O₃, quartz, and silicon carbide (SiC) wafers were examined as substrates for deposition of ZnO thin films. The results showed smooth and uniform growth of c-axis orientation films. The thickness of the layers was about 50 nm. The average grain sizes of films were about 10, 13, and 12 nm for Si (111), quartz, and SiC samples, respectively. The deposited film on Al₂O₃ showed the largest grain size, about 500 nm. Grazing incidence x-ray diffraction patterns of the samples revealed that sputtered layers on Al₂O₃ and quartz had better crystallinity with higher peak at (002) orientation compared to Si and SiC substrates. Moreover, the Al₂O₃ sample exhibited a weak peak at position of (100) planes of ZnO too. The photoluminescence spectra of the samples showed a typical luminescence behavior with a broad UV band, including a main peak at around 388 nm and a weak shoulder peak at around 381 nm, corresponding with bound excitonic recombination and free excitonic recombination, respectively. The luminescence peak revealed that the intensity of UV emission is not necessarily dependent on the grain sizes and the micro-structural quality of ZnO films.     

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 titanium powder assisted surface pretreatment process on the nucleation enhancement and surface roughness of ultrananocrystalline diamond thin films

A superior, easy and single-step titanium (Ti) powder assisted surface pretreatment process is demonstrated to enhance the diamond nucleation density of ultrananocrystalline diamond (UNCD) films. It is suggested that the Ti fragments attach to silicon (Si) surface form bond with carbon at a faster rate and therefore facilitates the diamond nucleation. The formation of smaller diamond clusters with higher nucleation density on Ti mixed nanodiamond powder pretreated Si substrate is found to be the main reason for smooth UNCD film surface in comparison to the conventional surface pretreatment by only nanodiamond powder ultrasonic process. The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic study ascertains the absence of SiC on the Si surface, which suggests that the pits, defects and Ti fragments on the Si surface are the nucleation centers to diamond crystal formation. The glancing-incidence X-ray diffraction measurements from 100 nm thick UNCD films evidently show reflections from diamond crystal planes, suggesting it to be an alternative powerful technique to identify diamond phase of UNCD thin films in the absence of ultra-violet Raman spectroscopy, near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure and transmission electron microscopy techniques.     

Effects of carbonization and substrate temperature on the growth of 3C-SiC on Si(1 1 1) by SSMBE

The growth of 3C-SiC on Si(1 1 1) substrate was performed at different carbonization temperatures and substrate temperatures by solid-source molecular beam epitaxy (SSMBE). The properties of SiC film were analyzed with in situ reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED), X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The best carbonization temperature of 810 °C was found to be optimal for the surface carbonization. The quality of SiC film grown on Si at substrate temperature of 1000 °C is best. The worse crystalline quality for the sample grown at higher temperature was attributed to the large mismatch of thermal expansion coefficient between SiC and Si which caused more dislocation when sample was cooled down to room temperature from higher substrate temperature. Furthermore, the larger size of single pit and the total area of the pits make the quality of SiC films grown at higher temperature worse. More Si atoms for the sample grown at lower temperature were responsible for the degradation of crystalline quality for the sample grown at lower temperature.

Homogeneous Si films on CaF2/Si(1 1 1) due to boron enhanced solid phase epitaxy

The structure and morphology of Si/CaF₂/Si(1 1 1) structures have been investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD, GIXRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). While CaF₂ films were grown via molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), Si films on CaF₂/Si(1 1 1) are fabricated by surfactant enhanced solid phase epitaxy (SE-SPE). Here Boron was used as a surfactant to obtain semiconductor films of homogeneous thickness. The Si films are entirely relaxed while the CaF₂ films have both pseudomorphic and relaxed crystallites. After exposure to ambient conditions, the Si films have a very thin native oxide film. The homogeneous Si film partially prevents the incorporation of impurities at the interface between the Si substrate and CaF₂ via migration along residual defects of the CaF₂ film.     

The comparison between CdS thin films grown on Si(111) substrate and quartz substrate by femtosecond pulsed laser deposition

Two kinds of cadmium sulfate (CdS) thin films have been grown at 600 °C onto Si(111) and quartz substrates using femtosecond pulsed laser deposition (PLD). The influence of substrates on the structural and optical properties of the CdS thin films grown by femtosecond pulsed laser deposition have been studied. The CdS thin films were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), photoluminescence (PL) and Raman spectroscopy. Although CdS thin films deposited both on Si(111) and quartz substrates were polycrystalline and hexagonal as shown by the XRD , SEM and AFM results, the crystalline quality and optical properties were found to be different. The size of the grains for the CdS thin film grown on Si(111) substrate were observed to be larger than that of the CdS thin film grown on quartz substrate, and there is more microcrystalline perpendicularity of c-axis for the film deposited on the quartz substrate than that for the films deposited on the Si substrate. In addition, in the PL spectra, the excitonic peak is more intense and resolved for CdS film deposited on quartz than that for the CdS film deposited on Si(111) substrate. The LO and TO Raman peaks in the CdS films grown on Si(111) substrate and quartz substrate are different, which is due to higher stress and bigger grain size in the CdS film grown on Si(111) substrate, than that of the CdS film grown on the amorphous quartz substrate. All this suggests that the substrates have a significant effect on the structural and optical properties of thin CdS films. PACS 81.15.Fg; 81.05.Ea; 78.20.-e; 78.67.-n; 42.62.-b
