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。     

脉冲激光沉积方法制备ZnO薄膜生长参量对发光特性的影响

用脉冲激光沉积（PLD）方法在Si（111）衬底上制备了ZnO薄膜。以325nmHe-Cd激光器为光源对薄膜进行了荧光光谱分析,用X射线衍射仪（XRD）和原子力显微镜（AFM）分别对薄膜的结构和形貌进行了分析。脉冲激光沉积方法的主要生长参量为氧压、激光重复频率、生长温度和激光能量。通过控制这些参量变量,研究了这些参量对ZnO薄膜发光特性的影响,得到了用于紫外发光的ZnO薄膜生长的优化条件：发现在温度为650℃左右、氧压50Pa左右、频率5Hz左右的范围内能得到半峰全宽较窄,强度较大的紫外发光峰。分析认为紫外峰主要是由激子辐射复合发光形成的,绿光带主要和Ozn的存在密切相关,氧空位是蓝光发射的重要原因。     

退火对ZnO薄膜质量的影响

用金属有机化学气相沉积法（MOCVD）在蓝宝石（0001）衬底上制备了c轴取向的高质量的ZnO薄膜,通过在生长温度下氧气和氮气中退火处理的比较,研究了退火对ZnO薄膜结构和发光特性的影响。通过X射线衍射测量得知,经过氮气和氧气退火都可以使其002峰增强,且在氧退火中表现得尤为明显。光致发光测量发现氮气中退火的ZnO薄膜的紫外发光峰明显增强,而深能级发光峰明显减弱;而氧气中退火的ZnO薄膜的紫外发光峰略有减弱,而深能级峰显著增强。

Effect of temperature on pulsed laser deposition of ZnO films

ZnO thin films have been deposited on Si(1 1 1) substrates at different substrate temperature by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) of ZnO target in oxygen atmosphere. An Nd:YAG pulsed laser with a wavelength of 1064 nm was used as laser source. The influences of the deposition temperature on the thickness, crystallinity, surface morphology and optical properties of ZnO films were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), selected area electron diffraction (SAED), photoluminescence (PL) spectrum and infrared spectrum. The results show that in our experimental conditions, the ZnO thin films deposited at 400 °C have the best surface morphology and crystalline quality. And the PL spectrum with the strongest ultraviolet (UV) peak and blue peak is observed in this condition.     

High quality p-type Ag-doped ZnO thin films achieved under elevated growth temperatures

By correlating the effects of substrate temperature, oxygen pressure and laser energy on the electrical and microstructural properties of Ag-doped ZnO films grown on a sapphire (0001) substrate, p-type conductivity is achieved under various substrate temperatures in the wide range of 250-750?°C. All of the samples were deposited by pulsed-laser deposition under various designed conditions. Hall measurements indicate that the best conductivity is achieved in Ag-ZnO films under a substrate temperature of 500?°C, a partial oxygen pressure of 250-300?mTorr and laser energy between 330 and 345?mJ. The hole-carrier concentration is 2.29?×?10(18)?cm(-3), the resistivity is 0.9?Ω?cm and the mobility is 3.03?cm(2)?V(-1)?s(-1). Transmission-electron microscopy (TEM) studies on the p-type films reveal similar microstructural properties to one another, but different properties to that of the n-type films deposited at the same temperatures with different deposition parameters.     

XRD study on the effect of the deposition condition on pulsed laser deposition of ZnO films

Using a pulsed laser deposition (PLD) process on a ZnO target in an oxygen atmosphere, thin films of this material have been deposited on Si(111) substrates. An Nd: YAG pulsed laser with a wavelength of 1064 nm was used as the laser source. The influences of the deposition temperature, laser energy, annealing temperature and focus lens position on the crystallinity of ZnO films were analyzed by X-ray diffraction. The results show that the ZnO thin films obtained at the deposition temperature of 400°C and the laser energy of 250 mJ have the best crystalline quality in our experimental conditions. The ZnO thin films fabricated at substrate temperature 400°C were annealed at the temperatures from 400°C to 800°C in an atmosphere of N₂. The results show that crystalline quality has been improved by annealing, the optimum temperature being 600°C. The position of the focusing lens has a strong influence on pulsed laser deposition of the ZnO thin films and the optimum position is 59.5 cm from the target surface for optics with a focal length of 70 cm.      

Relationship between the photoluminescence and conductivity of undoped ZnO thin films grown with various oxygen pressures

The pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique is used to deposit undoped ZnO thin films on glass substrates at 150 °C with different oxygen pressures of 40, 80, 100 and 150 mTorr. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) studies indicated that the obtained ZnO thin films were hexagonal wurtzite-type structures with strong (0 0 2) c-axis orientation. The relationship between photoluminescence and the conductivity of the ZnO thin films grown by pulsed laser deposition at various oxygen pressures was also discussed. The intensity of the deep-level-emission (DLE) and conductivity generally increased as the oxygen pressure decreased. The intensity of DLE peak was generally proportional to the conductivity. The band gap energy values, determined from transmittance spectra, were around 3.30-3.34 eV, and decreased when the oxygen pressure increased.
