Photoluminescence properties of thin nitrogen- and phosphorus-doped ZnO films fabricated using pulsed laser deposition

The production of n- and p-type high-quality film structures is a foreground task in tackling the problem of growing the light-emitting p-n junctions based on zinc oxide. The ZnO:N and ZnO:P thin-film samples are produced from ceramic targets using the pulsed laser deposition. Zn₃N₂, MgO, and Zn₃P₂ are introduced in the ZnO ceramic targets for the fabrication of the p-type ZnO films. Gases O₂ and N₂O are used as buffer gases. The thermal annealing of the ZnO films is employed. The resistance and photoluminescence (PL) spectra of the ZnO films are measured prior to and after annealing. The dependence of the ZnO PL peak amplitude and position prior to and after annealing on the level of doping with nitrogen and phosphorus is established. The PL characteristics of the films are studied at cw optical excitation using a He-Cd laser with a radiation wavelength of 325 nm. The PL spectra in the interval 300–700 nm are recorded by an HR4000 Ocean Optics spectrometer in the temperature range 10–400 K. The effect of the conditions for the film deposition on the PL spectra is analyzed. The effect of the N- and P-doping level of the ZnO films on the PL intensity of the films and the position of the PL bands in the UV region is investigated. The short-wavelength (250–400 nm) transmission spectra of the ZnO:P films are measured. The effect of the P-doping level on the band gap of the ZnO films is studied.     

The influence of substrate and annealing temperatures on electrical properties of p-type ZnO films

In this study, p-type ZnO films with excellent electrical properties were prepared by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis (USP) combining with a N-Al codoping technique. The influence of the substrate temperature and annealing temperature on electrical properties of ZnO films was investigated. The growth and doping process of ZnO films was explored by thermogravimetry, differential scanning calorimetry and mass spectrum (TG-DSC-MS) measurements. It is suggested that the variation of electrical properties of ZnO films with the substrate temperature and annealing temperature results from the removal of H element out of the films.     

Nitrogen doping in pulsed laser deposited ZnO thin films using dense plasma focus

Pulsed laser deposition synthesized ZnO thin films, grown at 400 °C substrate temperature in different oxygen gas pressures, were irradiated with 6 shots of pulsed nitrogen ions obtained from 2.94 kJ dense plasma focus to achieve the nitrogen doping in ZnO. Structural, compositional and optical properties of as-deposited and nitrogen ion irradiated ZnO thin films were investigated to confirm the successful doping of nitrogen in irradiated samples. Spectral changes have been seen in the nitrogen irradiated ZnO thin film samples from the low temperature PL measurements. Free electron to acceptor emissions can be observed from the irradiated samples, which hints towards the successful nitrogen doping in films. Compositional analysis by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and corresponding shifts in binding energy core peaks of oxygen and nitrogen confirmed the successful use of plasma focus device as a novel source for nitrogen ion doping in ZnO thin films.     

氮气氛中高温退火对ZnO薄膜发光性质的影响

以二乙基锌和水汽分别作为锌源和氧源,用LP-MOCVD方法在p型Si(100)衬底上生长了单一取向的ZnO薄膜。对得到的样品在氮气气氛中进行高温热处理,退火温度分别为900,1000,1100℃。利用室温PL谱、XRD、AFM、XPS等方法对样品的性质进行了研究。研究表明:(1)随着退火温度的升高,样品的结晶性质也逐渐提高,从表面形貌观察到晶粒尺寸逐渐增大;(2)当退火温度从900℃升高至1000℃时,样品的光致发光谱中可见光波段的发光强度有所减弱,而紫外波段的发光强度明显增强;当退火温度升高至1100℃时,可见光波段的发光几乎完全被抑制,而紫外波段的发光强度急剧增强。分析认为,高温退火改善晶体结晶质量的同时调制了样品的Zn/O比,氮气气氛下的热处理使得样品内的氧原子逸出,来自受主缺陷OZn的可见发射随温度升高逐渐减弱,而当退火温度达到1000℃以上时样品成为富锌状态,此时与施主缺陷Zni有关的紫外发射急剧增强。

Post-annealing influence on properties of N-In codoped ZnO thin films prepared by ion beam enhanced deposition method

N-In codoped ZnO thin films were prepared by ion beam enhanced deposition method (IBED) and were annealed in nitrogen and oxygen ambient after deposition. The influence of post-annealing on structure, electrical and optical properties of thin films were investigated. As-deposited and all post-annealed samples showed preferential orientation along (0 0 2) plane. Electrical property studies indicated that the as-deposited ZnO film showed p-type with a sheet resistance of 67.5 kΩ. For ZnO films annealed in nitrogen with the annealing temperature increasing from 400 to 800 °C, the conduction type of the ZnO film changed from p-type to n-type. However, for samples annealed in oxygen the resistance increased sharply even at a low annealing temperature of 400 °C and the conduction type did not change. Room temperature PL spectra of samples annealed in N₂ and in O₂ showed UV peak located at 381 and 356 nm, respectively.
