Boron doped ZnO thin films fabricated by RF-magnetron sputtering

By using the radio frequency-magnetron sputtering (RF-MS) method, both pure ZnO and boron doped ZnO (ZnO:B) thin films were deposited on glass substrates at ambient temperature and then annealed at 450 °C for 2 h in air. It is found that both ZnO and ZnO:B thin films have wurtzite structure of ZnO with (0 0 2) preferred orientation and high average optical transmission (≥80%). Compared with the resistivity of 6.3 × 10² Ω cm for ZnO film, both as-deposited and annealed ZnO:B films exhibit much lower resistivity of 9.2 × 10⁻³ Ω cm and 7.5 × 10⁻³ Ω cm, respectively, due to increase in the carrier concentration. Furthermore, the optical band gaps of 3.38 eV and 3.42 eV for as-deposited and annealed ZnO:B films are broader than that of 3.35 eV for ZnO film. The first-principles calculations show that in ZnO:B thin films not only the band gap becomes narrower but also the Fermi level shifts up into the conduction band with respect to the pure ZnO film. These are consistent with their lower resistivities and suggest that in the process of annealing some substituted B in the lattice change into interstitial B because of its smaller ion radius and this transformation widens the optical band gap of ZnO:B thin film.     

Chemical bath-deposited ZnS thin films: Preparation and characterization

Chemical bath deposition of ZnS thin films from NH₃/SC(NH₂)₂/ZnSO₄ solutions has been studied. The effect of various process parameters on the growth and the film quality are presented. The influence on the growth rate of solution composition and the structural, optical properties of the ZnS thin films deposited by this method have been studied. The XRF analysis confirmed that volume of oxygen of the as-deposited film is very high. The XRD analysis of as-deposited films shows that the films are cubic ZnS structure. The XRD analysis of annealed films shows the annealed films are cubic ZnS and ZnO mixture structure. Those results confirmed that the as-deposited films have amorphous Zn(OH)₂. SEM studies of the ZnS thin films grown on various growth phases show that ZnS film formed in the none-film phase is discontinuous. ZnS film formed in quasi-linear phase shows a compact and a granular structure with the grain size about 100 nm. There are adsorbed particles on films formed in the saturation phase. Transmission measurement shows that an optical transmittance is about 90% when the wavelength over 500 nm. The band gap (E_g) value of the deposited film is about 3.51 eV.     

Post-annealing influence on electrical properties and photoluminescence of B-N codoping ZnO thin films

B-N codoped ZnO (ZnO:(B,N)) films were grown on quartz substrate by radio-frequency (rf) magnetron sputtering. The influence of post-annealing ambient on electrical and optical properties of ZnO:(B,N) films were investigated using Hall and Photoluminescence (PL) measurement, respectively. Electrical properties studies indicate that both post-annealing ZnO:(B,N) showed p-type conduction. However, compared with ZnO:(B,N) annealed in oxygen, the ZnO:(B,N) annealed in vacuum have low resistivity and high concentration. The PL spectra indicate that two new emission bands located at 3.303 and 3.208 eV originate from the recombination of A⁰X and FA related to N acceptor for the annealed p-ZnO:(B,N) in vacuum, but of A⁰X, FA related to Zn vacancy for the annealed p-ZnO:(B,N) in oxygen. The mechanism of influence of post-annealing on the electrical and optical properties of the ZnO:(B,N) film is discussed in this work.     

Thermal stress induced band gap variation of ZnO thin films

The growth temperature and post annealing-dependent optical and structural effect of RF magnetron sputtered ZnO thin films were examined. As the growth temperature increased, the lattice constant increased and approached the bulk value, suggesting a decrease in interfacial strain between the substrate and thin film. For the post annealed samples, the interfacial strain decreased further and was close to the bulk value regardless of the post annealing environments (in air and O₂). The optical properties of all ZnO thin films examined and revealed higher transparency (>90%). Furthermore, the optical band gap varied according to the growth temperature and post annealing environments due to a decrease in the interfacial strain effect.     

Conversion of p-type to n-type conductivity in undoped ZnO films by increasing operating temperature

ZnO thin films with the thickness of about 15 nm on (0 0 0 1) sapphire substrates were prepared by pulsed laser deposition. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy indicated that both as-grown and post-annealed ZnO thin films were oxygen-rich. H₂ sensing measurements of the films indicated that the conductivity type of both the unannealed and annealed ZnO films converted from p-type to n-type in process of increasing the operating temperature. However, the two films showed different conversion temperatures. The origin of the p-type conductivity in the unannealed and annealed ZnO films should be attributed to oxygen related defects and zinc vacancies related defects, respectively. The conversion of the conductivity type was due to the annealing out of the correlated defects. Moreover, p-type ZnO films can work at lower temperature than n-type ZnO films without obvious sensitivity loss.     

Structure distortion, optical and electrical properties of ZnO thin films co-doped with Al and Sb by so--gel spin coating

ZnO thin films co-doped with Al and Sb with different concentrations and a fixed molar ratio of AlCl₃ to SbCl₃ at 1:2, are prepared by a sol--gel spin-coating method on glass annealed at 550 ℃ for 2 h in air. The x-ray diffraction results confirm that the ZnO thin films co-doped with Al and Sb are of wurtzite hexagonal ZnO with a very small distortion, and the biaxial stresses are 1.03×10⁸, 3.26×10⁸, 5.23×10⁸, and 6.97×10⁸ Pa, corresponding to those of the ZnO thin films co-doped with Al and Sb in concentrations of 1.5, 3.0, 4.5, 6.0 at% respectively. The optical properties reveal that the ZnO thin films co-doped with Al and Sb have obviously enhanced transmittance in the visible region. The electrical properties show that ZnO thin film co-doped with Al and Sb in a concentration of 1.5 at% has a lowest resistivity of 2.5Ω·cm.     

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.
