掺银氧化锌纳米棒的水热法制备研究

利用水热法在直流磁控溅射制备的掺铝氧化锌 (AZO) 种子层上制备了不同形貌和光学性能的掺银ZnO纳米棒, 并采用XRD、扫描电镜、透射谱、光发射谱和EDS谱详细研究了Ag离子与Zn离子的摩尔百分比 (R_Ag/Zn) 及AZO种子层对掺银ZnO纳米棒的结构和光学性质的影响. 随着R_Ag/Zn的增加, 掺银ZnO 纳米棒的微结构和光学性质的变化与银掺杂诱导的纳米棒的端面尺寸变化有关. 平均端面尺寸的变化归结于种子层颗粒大小和颗粒数密度不同导致掺入的Ag离子的相对比例不同. 溅射15 min的AZO种子层上生长的ZnO纳米棒由于缺陷增多导致在可见光区的发光峰明显强于溅射10 min 的AZO种子层上、相同R_Ag/Zn 条件下生长的ZnO纳米棒. Ag掺杂产生的点缺陷增多导致可见光区PL波包较宽. 纯ZnO纳米棒的微结构与种子层厚度导致的结晶度和颗粒大小有关. 关键词： ZnO纳米棒 水热法 Ag掺杂 直流磁控溅射     

Microstructure and optical properties of nitrogen-doped ZnO film

The nitrogen doping of ZnO film deposited by the magnetron sputtering method is subsequently realized by the hydrothermal synthesis method.The nitrogen-doped ZnO film is preferably(002) oriented.With the increase of hexamethylenetetramine(HMT) solution concentration,the average grain size of the film along the 002 direction almost immediately decreases and then monotonously increases,conversely,the lattice strain first increases and then decreases.The structural evolution of the film surface from compact and even to sparse and rough is attributed to the enhanced nitrogen doping content in the hydrothermal process.The transmission and photoluminescence properties of the film are closely related to grain size,lattice strain,and nitrogen-related defect arising from the enhanced nitrogen doping content with HMT concentration increasing.     

Ag-doped ZnO nanorods synthesized by two-step method

A two-step method is adopted to synthesize Ag-doped ZnO nanorods.A ZnO seed layer is first prepared on a glass substrate by thermal decomposition of zinc acetate.Ag-doped ZnO nanorods are then assembled on the ZnO seed layer using the hydrothermal method.The influences of the molar percentage of Ag ions to Zn ions(RAg/Zn) on the structural and optical properties of the ZnO nanorods obtained are carefully studied using X-ray diffractometry,scanning electron microscopy and spectrophotometry.Results indicate that Ag ions enter into the crystal lattice through the substitution of Zn ions.The<002>c-axis-preferred orientation of the ZnO nanorods decreases as RAg/Zn increases.At RAg/Zn >1.0%,ZnO nanorods lose their c-axis-preferred orientation and generate Ag precipitates from the ZnO crystal lattice.The average transmissivity in the visible region first increases and then decreases as R Ag/Zn increases.The absorption edge is first blue shifted and then red shifted.The influence of Ag doping on the average head face,and axial dimensions of the ZnO nanorods may be optimized to improve the average transmissivity at RAg/Zn <1.0%.

Evolution of the structural and optical properties of silver oxide films with different stoichiometries deposited by direct-current magnetron reactive sputtering

Nitrogen doping of silver oxide(AgxO) film is necessary for its application in transparent conductive film and diodes because intrinsic AgxO film is a p-type semiconductor with poor conductivity.In this work,a series of AgxO films is deposited on glass substrates by direct-current magnetron reactive sputtering at different flow ratios(FRs) of nitrogen to O2.Evolutions of the structure,the reflectivity,and the transmissivity of the film are studied by X-ray diffractometry and sphectrophotometry,respectively.The specular transmissivity and the specular reflectivity of the film decreasing with FR increasing can be attributed to the evolution of the phase structure of the film.The nitrogen does not play the role of an acceptor dopant in the film deposition.     

The crystal structures and physical properties of the solid solution compound Ba5Y8-xMn4021-1.5x （x = 0, 1）

New oxometallides with the formula Ba5Y8-xMn4021-1.5x （x = 0, 1） are prepared through an atmosphere-controlled solid-state reaction. Two single-phase samples with Ba/Y/Mn atomic ratios 5/8/4 （Y8） and 5/7/4 （Y7） are obtained. The crystal structures and the physical properties of the compounds are investigated by X-ray powder diffraction, magnetization, conductivity, and dielectricity measurements. The Ba5Y8-xMn4021-1.5x compound is demonstrated to be a Y-deficient solid solution. The solid solution compound Ba5Y8-xMn4021-1.5x crystallizes into tetragonal symmetry with the space group I4/m. Detailed structure analysis by Rietveld refinement of the X-ray powder diffraction data reveals that the Y vacancies occur preferentially at the Y（2） site. Thermal magnetization measurements indicate the presence of antiferromagnetic interaction between Mn ions in the compounds, and temperature-dependent resistivity measurements show that insulator-semiconductor transitions occur around 175 K and 170 K for the Y8 and Y7 samples, respectively. Strong frequency dependences of the dielectric constant are observed above -175 K for the two compounds.
