以金属Zn(纯度为99.99%)作为靶材,采用离子束反应溅射法在玻璃衬底上溅射沉积了一系列ZnO薄膜样品。通过对薄膜样品X射线衍射(XRD)谱的分析,发现尽管溅射条件不同,但是ZnO薄膜只沿(0002)晶面取向生长。衬底温度和溅射气体的氧分压对薄膜沿c轴取向生长有影响,其中衬底温度的影响较明显。溅射过程中发现衬底温度为360℃最适合(0002)晶面的生长,在此温度下溅射获得了完全沿c轴取向生长且衍射峰最强的ZnO薄膜。室温下测量了ZnO薄膜的发射光谱,发现薄膜在紫外区(364nm附近)、蓝绿区(470nm附近)有较强的发光峰,在紫光区(398nm附近)、蓝光区(452nm附近)和红外区(722nm附近)有较弱的发光峰。ZnO薄膜在空气中退火,对薄膜的结构、发光和电学性质都有一定影响。合适的退火温度可以促进薄膜沿c轴的取向生长;退火后ZnO多晶薄膜的晶粒比未退火的略大;退火使部分发光峰的位置发生偏移并使薄膜的发光强度增强;退火使薄膜的电阻率显著增大,薄膜的电阻率随氧分压的增大而增大。

Growth and characterization of pulsed laser deposited ZnO thin films

One of the most important and promising materials from metal oxides is ZnO with specific properties for near UV emission and absorption optical devices. The properties of ZnO thin films strongly depend on the deposition method. Among them, pulsed laser deposition (PLD) plays an important role for preparing various kinds of ZnO films, e.g. doped, undoped, monocrystalline, and polycrystalline. Different approaches — ablation of sintered ZnO pellets or pure metallic Zn as target material are described. This contribution is comparing properties of ZnO thin films deposited from pure Zn target in oxygen atmosphere and those deposited from sintered ZnO target. There is a close connection between final thin film properties and PLD conditions. The surface properties of differently grown ZnO thin films are measured by secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Furthermore, different approaches — ablation of sintered ZnO pellet or pure metallic Zn as target materials are described. The main results characterize typical properties of ZnO films versus technological parameters are presented.

Defects in room-temperature ferromagnetic Cu-doped ZnO films probed by x-ray absorption spectroscopy

We report a comprehensive study of the defects in room-temperature ferromagnetic (RTFM) Cu-doped ZnO thin films using x-ray absorption spectroscopy. The films are doped with 2 at.% Cu, and are prepared by reactive magnetron sputtering (RMS) and pulsed laser deposition (PLD), respectively. The results reveal unambiguously that atomic point defects exist in these RTFM thin films. The valence states of the Cu ions in both films are 2(+). In the film prepared by PLD, the oxygen vacancies (V(O)) form around both Zn ions and Cu ions in the hexagonal wurtzite structure. Upon annealing of the film in O(2), the V(O) population reduces and so does the RTFM. In the film prepared by RMS, the V(O)s around Cu ions are not detected, and the V(O) population around Zn ions is also smaller than in the PLD-prepared film. However, zinc vacancies (V(Zn)) are evidenced. Given the low doping level of spin-carrying Cu ions, these results provide strong support for defect-mediated ferromagnetism in Cu-doped ZnO thin films.     

Zn/O ratio and oxygen chemical state of nanocrystalline ZnO films grown at different temperatures

ZnO nanocrystalline films are prepared on Si substrates at different temperatures by using metal-organic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD). It is observed that when the growth temperature is low, the stoichiometric ratio between Zn and O atoms has a large deviation from the ideal ratio of 1:1. The ZnO grains in the film have small sizes and are not well crystallized, resulting in a poor photoluminescence (PL) property. When the temperature is increased to an appropriate value, the Zn/O ratio becomes optimized, and most of Zn and O atoms are combined into Zn-O bonds. Then the film has good crystal quality and good PL property. If the temperature is fairly high, the interfacial mutual diffusion of atoms between the substrate and the epitaxial film appears, and the desorption process of the oxygen atoms is enhanced. However, it has no effect on the film property. The film still has the best crystal quality and PL property.

Effects of oxygen partial pressure on resistive switching characteristics of ZnO thin films by DC reactive magnetron sputtering

Cu/ZnO/n⁺-Si structures were prepared by magnetron sputtering of a layer of ZnO thin film onto heavily doped silicon substrate, followed by thermal evaporation of a thin layer of metallic Cu. The resistive switching characteristics of Cu/ZnO/n⁺-Si structures were investigated as a function of oxygen partial pressure during ZnO deposition. Reproducible resistive switching characteristics were observed in ZnO thin films deposited at 20%, 33% and 50% oxygen partial pressure ratios while ZnO thin film deposited at 10% oxygen partial pressure ratio did not show resistive switching behavior. The conduction mechanisms in high and low resistance states are dominated by space-charge-limited conduction and ohmic behavior respectively, which suggests that resistive switching behaviors in such structures are related to filament formation and rupture. It is also found that the reset current decreases as oxygen partial pressure increases, due to the variation of oxygen vacancy concentration in the ZnO thin films.     

氧分压对PLD制备ZnO薄膜结构和发光性质的影响

采用脉冲激光沉积(PLD)技术,在Si(100)衬底上制备出高度c轴取向的ZnO薄膜。通过X射线衍射(XRD)谱,扫描电镜(SEM)和室温光致发光(PL)光谱的测量,研究了生长气氛压强的改变对薄膜结构和光致发光的影响。实验结果表明,当氧压从10Pa升高到100Pa时ZnO(002)衍射峰的半峰全宽(FWHM)增大。可以认为这是由于较高的氧压下,到达衬底表面的离子动能减小。这样部分离子没有足够的能量迁移到生长较快的(002)面,c轴取向变差,导致(002)衍射峰的强度降低,半峰全宽增大。随着氧压增大,紫外发光强度增强。这可能是氧压变大,薄膜的化学配比升高,说明化学配比对UV发光的影响要大于薄膜微结构的影响。改变氧气压强对薄膜的表面形貌也有较大的影响。
