离子注入Zn的Si(001)基片热氧化制备纳米ZnO团簇及其生长行为研究

采用离子注入技术将Zn离子注入Si（001）基片,并在大气环境下加热氧化制备了ZnO纳米团簇.利用电子探针、薄膜X射线衍射仪、原子力显微镜和透射电子显微镜,对注入和热氧化后的薄膜成分、表面形貌和微观结构进行表征,探讨了热氧化温度以及注入剂量对纳米ZnO团簇的成核过程及生长行为的影响.结果表明,Zn离子注入到Si基片表面后形成了Zn纳米团簇,热氧化过程中Zn离子向表面扩散,在表面SiO₂非晶层和Si基片多晶区的界面处形成纳米团簇.热氧化温度是影响ZnO纳米团簇结晶质量的一个重要参数.随着热氧化温度的升高,金属Zn的衍射峰强度逐渐变弱并消失,而ZnO的（101）衍射峰强度逐渐增强.当热氧化温度高于800 ℃以后,ZnO与SiO₂之间开始发生化学反应形成Zn₂SiO₄. 关键词： ZnO纳米团簇 离子注入 微观结构 形貌分析     

以Au为缓冲层在Si衬底上生长ZnO薄膜

采用化学气相沉积(CVD)方法在Si(001)衬底上分别制备了有金属Au缓冲层以及无Au缓冲层的ZnO薄膜。其中Au缓冲层在物理气相沉积(PVD)设备中蒸发,厚度大约为300nm。有Au缓冲层的ZnO薄膜晶体质量比直接在Si衬底上生长有了显著提高。利用X射线衍射(XRD)研究了所生长ZnO薄膜的结晶质量,有Au缓冲层的ZnO薄膜虽然仍为多晶,但显示出明显的择优取向。用光学显微镜研究了ZnO薄膜的表面特征,金属Au缓冲层显著地提高了在Si衬底上生长的ZnO薄膜的晶粒尺寸及平整度。同时利用室温光致发光(PL)谱研究了ZnO薄膜的光学性质,并分析了有Au缓冲层的ZnO薄膜NEB发光峰强度反而弱的可能原因。     

Si(001)基片上反应射频磁控溅射ZnO薄膜的两步生长方法

利用反应射频磁控溅射技术，采用两步生长方法制备了ZnO薄膜，探讨了基片刻蚀时间和低温过渡层沉积时间对ZnO薄膜生长行为的影响.研究结果表明，低温ZnO过渡层的沉积时间所导致的薄膜表面形貌的变化与过渡层在Si(001)表面的覆盖度有关.当低温过渡层尚未完全覆盖基片表面时，ZnO薄膜的表面岛尺度较小、表面粗糙度较大，薄膜应力较大；当低温过渡层完全覆盖Si(001)基片后，ZnO薄膜的表面岛尺度较大、表面粗糙度较小，薄膜应力较小.基片刻蚀时间对薄膜表面形貌的影响与低温过渡层的成核密度有关.随着刻蚀时间的增加，ZnO薄膜的表面粗糙度逐渐下降，表面形貌自仿射结构的关联长度逐渐减小. 关键词： ZnO薄膜 反应射频磁控溅射 两步生长 形貌分析     

气相输运法制备ZnO薄膜(英文)

运用气相输运技术在不同的衬底上制备ZnO薄膜,同时对这些ZnO薄膜的表面形貌、晶体结构和光学特性进行表征。在扫描电子显微镜图像上可以看到,相比没有镀金的Si衬底,ZnO纳米颗粒在镀金的Si衬底上的生长尺寸较大。X射线衍射测试结果表明,在Si(111)和Si(100)衬底上生长的ZnO薄膜显示出不同的六角纤锌矿结构的衍射峰,但没有出现立方闪锌矿ZnO结构的衍射峰。在镀金的Si衬底上,ZnO薄膜生长取向主要为c轴方向。此外,所有ZnO样品的光致发光谱上均只出现一个狭窄且强的紫外峰,约在389 nm(3.19 eV)波长处。

定向ZnO纳米钉阵列的制备及生长机理

在550 ℃下,采用化学气相沉积(CVD)法在镀Au(10 nm)的Si(100)衬底上,制备了ZnO一维纳米钉阵列结构。X射线衍射(XRD)谱图中只显示了(002)衍射峰,其半峰全宽为0.166°,表明制备的纳米钉阵列具有高度c轴择优生长取向的特点和较高的结晶质量,高分辨透射电子显微镜(HRTEM)和选区电子衍射图(SAED)谱的结果表明所得到的单根纳米钉为沿(002)生长的单晶结构;同时,对一维纳米钉阵列的生长机理进行了分析。结果表明:由于Si与ZnO之间大的晶格失配度,首先在Si表面沉积一层富Zn的ZnO_x薄膜缓冲层,然后通过VLS机理中的底端生长模式生长成为纳米钉阵列结构。     

CVD法制备ZnO薄膜生长取向和表面形貌

利用具有特定温度梯度的CVD设备,以锌粉和氧气为原料,在Si(100)衬底上制备了ZnO薄膜。研究发现,锌粉中加入某些氯化物后可以改变ZnO薄膜的生长取向。用FESEM观察ZnO薄膜的表面形貌,发现Zn和氯化物的量比为1∶1时,生长的ZnO薄膜表面晶粒呈菱形或三角形({101}面),当二者的量比为10∶1时薄膜表面晶粒呈六棱台形({001}面)。XRD分析结果证实,前者只观察到(101)和(202)衍射峰,而后者出现(002)衍射峰且其强度大于(101)衍射峰。改变衬底或温度后得到的结果相同。因此,作者认为氯化物改变薄膜生长取向的现象与衬底和生长温度无关,添加的氯化物起到降低ZnO{101}面表面能的作用,随着氯化物浓度的增加,薄膜从沿[001]方向生长逐渐转向沿[101]方向生长。     

湿法刻蚀对Si基片孔点阵及ZnO外延薄膜周期形貌的影响

ZnO薄膜的自组织设计及形貌控制

采用单源化学气相沉积(SSCVD)法,在Si(100)基片上通过改变前驱反应体与基片的入射角度,获得了可控柱状取向的ZnO薄膜.研究发现,入射角度的改变可使沉积薄膜中的柱状结构的生成方向倾斜.但X射线衍射(XRD)分析表明:ZnO薄膜的c轴(002)取向与入射角无关,且不沿ZnO柱状结构的生长方向取向.由于ZnO的(002)面为其表面自由能最低且原子密度高的晶面,ZnO薄膜的生长更易于在垂直于基片表面的方向c轴取向生长.     

Controllable growth of well-aligned ZnO nanorod arrays by low-temperature wet chemical bath deposition method

Well-aligned ZnO nanorod arrays were synthesized by low-temperature wet chemical bath deposition (CBD) method on Si substrate under different conditions. Results illustrated that dense ZnO nanorods with hexagonal wurtzite structure were vertically well-aligned and uniformly distributed on the substrate. The effects of precursor concentration, growth temperature and time on nanorods morphology were investigated systematically. The mechanism for the effect of preparation parameters was elucidated based on the chemical process of CBD and basic nucleation theory. It is demonstrated that the controllable growth of well-aligned ZnO nanorods can be realized by readily adjusting the preparation parameters. Strong near-band edge ultraviolet (UV) emission were observed in room temperature photoluminescence (PL) spectra for the samples prepared under optimized parameters, yet the usually observed defect related deep level emissions were nearly undetectable, indicating high optical quality ZnO nanorod arrays could be achieved via this easy process chemical approach at low temperature.     

Effect of annealing temperature on density of ZnO quantum dots

ZnO quantum dots (QDs) were fabricated on Si (001) substrates by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) and subsequent thermal annealing. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy analyses revealed that the ZnO QDs had polycrystalline hexagonal wurtzite structure. The size and density of ZnO QDs were investigated by atomic force microscopy. It has been found that the density decreased while the size increased with increasing annealing temperature. The analysis of size distribution of the dots shows an obvious bimodal mode according to scaling theory. The Raman spectrum shows a typical resonant multi-phonon form for the ZnO QDs. The collapse from the top of the dots was observed firstly after the samples were exposed in air for 30 days.     

基于MOCVD三步生长的GaAs/Si外延技术EI北大核心CSCD

在硅(Si)上外延生长高质量的砷化镓(GaAs)薄膜是实现硅基光源单片集成的关键因素。但是,Si材料与GaAs材料之间较大的晶格失配、热失配等问题对获得高质量的GaAs薄膜造成了严重影响。本文利用金属有机化学气相沉积(MOCVD)技术开展Si基GaAs生长研究。通过采用三步生长法,运用低温成核层、高温GaAs层与循环热退火等结合的方式,进一步降低Si基GaAs材料的表面粗糙度和穿透位错密度。并利用X射线衍射(XRD)ω-2θ扫描追踪采用不同方法生长的样品中残余应力的变化。最终,在GaAs低温成核层生长时间62 min(生长厚度约25 nm)时,采用三步生长、循环热退火等结合的方式获得GaAs(004)XRD摇摆曲线峰值半高宽(FWHM)为401″、缺陷密度为6.8×10^(7) cm^(-2)、5μm×5μm区域表面粗糙度为6.71 nm的GaAs外延材料,在材料中表现出张应力。

Microstructure and optical properties of ZnO/porous silicon nanocomposite films

In this study, porous silicon (PS) templates were formed by electrochemical anodization on p-type (100) silicon wafer and ZnO films were deposited on PS substrates using radio frequency (RF) reactive magnetron sputtering technique. The effects of oxygen partial pressures of growth ZnO films and annealing ambience on the microstructure and photoluminescence (PL) of the ZnO/PS nanocomposite films were systematically investigated by X-ray diffraction and fluorescence spectrophotometry. The results indicated that all ZnO/PS nanocomposite films were polycrystalline in nature with a hexagonal wurtzite structure and the (002) oriented ZnO films had the best crystal quality under O₂:Ar ratio of 10:10 sccm and annealing in vacuum. PL measurements at room temperature revealed that ZnO/PS nanocomposite systems formed a broad PL band including the blue and green emissions from ZnO and red-orange emission from the PS. The mechanism and interpretation of broadband PL of the nanocomposites were discussed in detail using an oxygen-bonding model in PS and a native defects model in ZnO.     

Synthesis and PL Properties of ZnSe Nanowires with Zincblende and Wurtzite Structures

Single crystalline ZnSe nanowires with both zincblende and wurtzite structures have been synthesized via a chemical vapour deposition method under different growth conditions. The nanowires are usually 50-80nm in diameter, and several tens of microns in length. Room-temperature photoluminescence spectra from zincblende and wurtzite ZnSe nanowires show a broad luminescence band peaked at around 2. 71 e V and a deep level emission band peaked at around 2.00 eV, respectively. Effects of post-growth annealing on the photoluminescence of these nanowires have been investigated. Strong room-temperature band-edge emission could be obtained from the annealed zincblende ZnSe nanowires.     

Ab Initio Comparative Study of Zincblende and Wurtzite ZnO

By employing the first-principles pseudopotential plane-wave method, the physical properties of zincblende ZnO are investigated in comparison with those of the common wurtzite structure. Zincblende ZnO is predicted to be a direct gap semiconductor. Compared to the wurtzite structure, the zincblende ZnO is characterized by smaller bandgap and pressure coefficient, larger electron effective mass, increasing static dielectric constants and more covalent bonding. Furthermore, the optical properties including dielectric function and energy loss function of zincblende ZnO were obtained and analysed with some features. These aspects reveal promising applications of zincblende ZnO in optoelectronic devices.     

Characterization of epitaxial MgO growth on Si(001) surface

MgO epitaxial growth on a Si(001) surface by ultrahigh-vacuum molecular beam epitaxy was investigated. Epitaxial orientation and crystalline quality were characterized based on the three-dimensional reciprocal map obtained by Weissenberg RHEED. The epitaxial orientation and crystallinity were strongly dependent on the initial condition of the substrate. When MgO was deposited on a clean Si(001) surface at room temperature a MgO(001) film grew on the Si(001) substrate with two in-plane orientations:MgO[110]//Si[100] and MgO[100]//Si[100]. This is the first observation of MgO epitaxy with the former orientation, which has a smaller mismatch than the latter orientation. When the substrate was exposed to O₂ or thermally oxidized, the latterorientation predominantly grew on the substrate. Deposition of Mg on the substrate also produced the latter orientation. These results imply that nucleation sites on the initial substrate play an important role in determining the epitaxial orientation.     

The coalescence of silicon layers grown over SiO2 by liquid-phase epitaxy

The coalescence of epitaxial silicon layers which are grown laterally over oxidized and patterned Si substrates is studied using various techniques of transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The epitaxial layers, the seam of coalescence and lattice defects formed by the coalescence are characterized. The epitaxial layer as a whole is found to be bent with respect to the substrate. Such misorientations, together with facetting of the growth fronts of the coalescing layers, may lead to the formation of solvent inclusions, dislocations and stacking faults at the seam of coalescence. However, under favourable conditions, the seam is found to be entirely defect-free.
