离子束反应溅射沉积SiO2薄膜的光学特性

 主要研究采用离子束反应溅射（RIBS）制备SiO2薄膜的折射率、消光系数、化学计量比与氧气在氩氧混合工作气体中含量及其沉积速率的关系。研究结果表明：RIBS制备的SiO2薄膜在0.63 μm处折射率n= 1.48,消光系数小于10-5;随着沉积速率的增加,薄膜的折射率和消光系数随之变大,当沉积速率超过0.3 nm/s,即使是在纯氧环境溅射,折射率值也不低于1.5;通过对红外透射光谱的主吸收峰位置研究得到沉积的SiO2薄膜为缺氧型,化学计量比不超过1.8,且红外吸收峰位置和SiO2折射率存在对应关系,因此在不加热衬底情况下使用RIBS制备SiO2薄膜时,会限制沉积速率的提高。

Fabrication and photoluminescence characteristics of In2O3 nanohillocks

Uniformly distributed polycrystalline indium nanohillocks are synthesized on silicon substrates with Au catalyst by using the radio frequency magnetic sputtering technique. The results show that the Au catalyst plays a key role in the formation of indium nanohillocks. After thermally oxidizing the indium nanohillocks at 500 ℃ in air for 5 h, the indium nanohillocks totally transform into In₂O₃ nanohillocks. The energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy result indicates that many oxygen vacancies and oxygen-indium vacancy pairs exist in the In₂O₃ nanohillocks. Photoluminescence spectra under an Ne laser excitation at 280 nm show broad emissions at 420 nm and 470 nm with a shoulder at 450 nm related to oxygen vacancies and oxygen-indium vacancies at room temperature.

Structural and electrical properties of fluorine-doped zinc tin oxide thin films prepared by radio-frequency magnetron sputtering

Transparent and conductive thin films of fluorine doped zinc tin oxide (FZTO) were deposited on glass substrates by radio-frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering using a 30 wt% ZnO with 70 wt% SnO₂ ceramic targets. The F-doping was carried out by introducing a mixed gas of pure Ar, CF₄, and O₂ forming gas into the sputtering chamber while sputtering ZTO target. The effect of annealing temperature on the structural, electrical and optical performances of FZTO thin films has been studied. FZTO thin film annealed at 600 °C shows the decrease in resistivity 5.47 × 10⁻³ Ω cm, carrier concentration ∼10¹⁹ cm⁻³, mobility ∼20 cm² V⁻¹ s⁻¹ and an increase in optical band gap from 3.41 to 3.60 eV with increasing the annealing temperatures which is well explained by Burstein–Moss effect. The optical transmittance of FZTO films was higher than 80% in all specimens. Work function (ϕ) of the FZTO films increase from 3.80 eV to 4.10 eV through annealing and are largely dependent on the amounts of incorporated F. FZTO is a possible potential transparent conducting oxide (TCO) alternative for application in optoelectronics.     

The 50 nm-thick yttrium iron garnet films with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy

Yttrium iron garnet (YIG) films possessing both perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) and low damping would serve as ideal candidates for high-speed energy-efficient spintronic and magnonic devices. However, it is still challenging to achieve PMA in YIG films thicker than 20 nm, which is a major bottleneck for their development. In this work, we demonstrate that this problem can be solved by using substrates with moderate lattice mismatch with YIG so as to suppress the excessive strain-induced stress release as increasing the YIG thickness. After carefully optimizing the growth and annealing conditions, we have achieved out-of-plane spontaneous magnetization in YIG films grown on sGGG substrates, even when they are as thick as 50 nm. Furthermore, ferromagnetic resonance and spin pumping induced inverse spin Hall effect measurements further verify the good spin transparency at the surface of our YIG films.     

Structure,phase evolution and properties of Ta films deposited using hybrid high-power pulsed and DC magnetron co-sputtering

Crystalline phase and microstructure control are critical for obtaining desired properties of Ta films deposited by magnetron sputtering. Structure, phase evolution and properties of Ta films deposited by using hybrid high power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) and direct current magnetron sputtering (DCMS) under different fractions of DCMS power were investigated, where Ta ion to Ta neutral ratios of the deposition flux were changed. The results revealed that the number of Ta ions arriving on the substrate/growing film plays an important role in structure and phase evolution of Ta films. It can effectively avoid the unstable arc discharge under low pressure and show a higher deposition rate by combining HiPIMS and DCMS compared with only HiPIMS. Meanwhile, the high hardness α -Ta films can be directly deposited by hybrid co-sputtering compared to those prepared by DCMS. In the co-sputtering technology, pure α -Ta phase films with extremely fine, dense and uniform crystal grains were obtained, which showed smooth surface roughness (3.22 nm), low resistivity (38.98 μΩ · cm) and abnormal high hardness (17.64 GPa).
