Lattice-matched InGaP epilayers on GaAs (001) and InGaP/GaAs heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs) were successfully grown by solid-source molecular beam epitaxy (SSMBE) with a GaP decomposition source. A 3 μm thick InGaP epilayer shows that low temperature photoluminescence (PL) peak energy is as large as 1.998 eV, full width at half maximum (FWHM) is 5.26 meV, which is the smallest ever reported, and X-ray diffraction (XRD) rocking curve linewidth is as narrow as that of GaAs substrate. The electron mobilities at room temperature of nominally undoped InGaP layers obtained by Hall measurements are comparable to similar InGaP epilayer grown by solid-source molecular beam epitaxy (SSMBE) with other sources or other growth techniques. The large area InGaP/GaAs HBTs show very good Dc characteristics. 相似文献

MnAs thin films were grown by metalorganic vapour-phase epitaxy (MOVPE) on GaAs(0 0 1), Si(0 0 1) and oxidised silicon substrates. All films are crystalline and contain only the ferromagnetic α-MnAs phase. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) measurements show that films on GaAs(0 0 1) have strong preferential orientation, developing elongated grains parallel to [1 –1 0] GaAs while films on bare and oxidised Si are polycrystalline with irregular-shaped, randomly oriented grains. Magneto-optic Kerr effect (MOKE) measurements show good magnetic properties for films on GaAs, such as strong in-plane anisotropy and squareness of the hysteresis loop in the easy direction. A Curie temperature of 340 K, remarkably higher than the bulk material (315 K), was found for a 65 nm thick film on GaAs. Films grown on bare and oxidised silicon wafers had lower Curie temperature and were magnetically isotropic. 相似文献

CdTe thin films were grown on GaAs (1 0 0) substrates by using molecular beam epitaxy at various temperatures. The bright-field transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images and the high-resolution TEM (HRTEM) images showed that the crystallinity of CdTe epilayers grown on GaAs substrates was improved by increasing the substrate temperature. The result of selected-area electron diffraction pattern (SADP) showed that the orientation of the grown CdTe thin films was the (1 0 0) orientation. The lattice constant the strain, and the stress of the CdTe thin film grown on the GaAs substrate were determined from the SADP result. Based on the SADP and HRTEM results, a possible atomic arrangement for the CdTe/GaAs heterostructure is presented. 相似文献

Formation of self-assembled InAs 3D islands on GaAs (1 1 0) substrate by metal organic vapor phase epitaxy has been investigated. Relatively uniform InAs islands with an average areal density of 109 cm−2are formed at 400 ° C using a thin InGaAs strain reducing (SR) layer. No island formation is observed without the SR layer. Island growth on GaAs (1 1 0) is found to require a significantly lower growth temperature compared to the more conventional growth on GaAs (1 0 0) substrates. In addition, the island height is observed to depend only weakly on the growth temperature and to be almost independent of the V/III ratio and growth rate. Low-temperature photoluminescence at 1.22 eV is obtained from the overgrown islands. 相似文献

Uniform, adherent, single phase samarium doped ceria films have been successfully deposited by spray pyrolysis technique for their application in solid oxide fuel cell. These films have been deposited at different substrate temperatures on glass substrate and subsequently heat treated in tube furnace. Effect of substrate temperature and annealing temperature on phase formation was studied with thermo-gravimetric analysis and differential temperature analysis, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, and energy dispersive X-ray analysis techniques. These studies showed the formation of single phase Ce0.8Sm0.2O1.9 films, at substrate temperature 400 °C and annealing temperature 550 °C. Electrical resistivity of the films, at room temperature was of the order of 107 Ω cm while at 400 °C it is found to be of the order of 101 Ω cm. This reveals the use of these films for making low temperature solid oxide fuel cells. 相似文献

We have investigated on the molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) of Te-doped GaSb films on ZnTe buffer. Te-doped GaSb (GaSb:Te) films with and without ZnTe buffer were grown on (0 0 1) GaAs substrates. GaSb:Te/ZnTe/GaAs film revealed higher mobility (=631 cm2/V s) in comparison to GaSb:Te/GaAs film (=249 cm2/V s). To explain the higher mobility of GaSb:Te on ZnTe buffer, dislocation density and temperature dependence of Hall measurement results were analyzed. Temperature dependence of Hall measurement shows strong influence of the dislocation scattering, which indicates that dislocation reduction by the ZnTe buffer enhances the carrier mobility of GaSb films. 相似文献

Magnetotransport properties of magnetite thin films deposited on gallium arsenide and sapphire substrates at growth temperatures between 473 and 673 K are presented. The films were grown by UV pulsed laser ablation in reactive atmospheres of O2 and Ar, at working pressure of 8 × 10−2 Pa. Film stoichiometry was determined in the range from Fe2.95O4 to Fe2.97O4. Randomly oriented polycrystalline thin films were grown on GaAs(1 0 0) while for the Al2O3(0 0 0 1) substrates the films developed a (1 1 1) preferred orientation. Interfacial Fe3+ diffusion was found for both substrates affecting the magnetic behaviour. The temperature dependence of the resistance and magnetoresistance of the films were measured for fields up to 6 T. Negative magnetoresistance values of ∼5% at room temperature and ∼10% at 90 K were obtained for the as-deposited magnetite films either on GaAs(1 0 0) or Al2O3(0 0 0 1). 相似文献

GaN have sphalerite structure (Cubic-GaN) and wurtzite structure (hexagonal GaN). We report the H-GaN epilayer with a LT-AlN buffer layer has been grown on Si(1 1 1) substrate by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). According to the FWHM values of 0.166° and 14.01 cm−1 of HDXRD curve and E2 (high) phonon of Raman spectrum respectively, we found that the crystal quality is perfect. And based on the XRD spectrum, the crystal lattice constants of Si (a = 5.3354 ?) and H-GaN (aepi = 3.214 ?, cepi = 5.119 ?) have been calculated for researching the tetragonal distortion of the sample. These results indicate that the GaN epilayer is in tensile strain and Si substrate is in compressive strain which were good agreement with the analysis of Raman peaks shift. Comparing with typical values of screw-type (Dscrew = 7 × 108 cm−2) and edge-type (Dedge = 2.9 × 109 cm−2) dislocation density, which is larger than that in GaN epilayers growth on SiC or sapphire substrates. But our finding is important for the understanding and application of nitride semiconductors. 相似文献

Epitaxial MgO thin films have been grown on semiinsulating GaAs (0 0 1) substrates using electron beam (e-beam) evaporation. X-ray diffraction indicates c-axis oriented MgO with (0 0 2) reflection only and rocking curve widths ∼2.2-3°. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analyses confirm an epitaxial growth of the MgO films. We study the microstructure and the defects at the interface between the MgO film and the GaAs substrate. Auger electron Spectroscopy (AES) concentration depth profiles reveal no contamination of the MgO films by As and Ga at different temperatures of the deposition process. 相似文献

ZnO thin films were fabricated using zinc chloride and zinc acetate precursors by the spray pyrolysis technique on FTO coated glass substrates. The ZnO films were grown in different deposition temperature ranges varying from 400 to 550 °C. Influences of substrate temperature and zinc precursors on crystal structure, morphology and optical property of the ZnO thin films were investigated. XRD patterns of the films deposited using chloride precursor indicate that (1 0 1) is dominant at low temperatures, while those deposited using acetate precursor show that (1 0 1) is dominant at high temperatures. SEM images show that deposition temperature and type of precursor have a strong effect on the surface morphology. Optical measurements show that ZnO films are obviously influenced by the substrate temperatures and different types of precursor solutions. It is observed that as temperature increases, transmittance decreases for ZnO films obtained using zinc chloride precursor, but the optical transmittance of ZnO films obtained using zinc acetate precursor increases as temperature increases. 相似文献

Nickel oxide thin films were deposited on fused silica and Si(1 0 0) substrates at different substrate temperatures ranging from room temperature to 400 °C using radio frequency reactive magnetron sputtering from a Ni metal target in a mixture of O2 and Ar. With the increase of substrate temperature, nickel oxide films deposited on the Si substrates exhibit transition from amorphous to poly-crystalline structures with different preferred orientations of NiO(2 0 0) and (1 1 1). The films deposited at higher temperature exhibit higher Ni2+/Ni3+ ratio. With substrate temperature increasing from room temperature to 400 °C, the electrical resistivities of nickel oxide films increase from (2.8 ± 0.1) × 10−2 to (8.7 ± 0.1) Ω cm, and the optical band-gap energies increase from 3.65 to 3.88 eV. A p-nickel oxide/n-zinc oxide heterojunction was fabricated to confirm the p-type conduction of nickel oxide thin film, which exhibited a steadily rectifying behavior. 相似文献

CdSe thin films have been grown on GaAs (0 0 1) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). The effects of substrate temperature and annealing treatment on the structural properties of CdSe layers were investigated. The growth rate slightly decreases due to the accelerated desorption of Cd from CdSe surface with an increase in the temperature. The sample grown at 260 °C shows a polycrystalline structure with rough surface. As the temperature increases over 300 °C, crystalline CdSe (0 0 1) epilayers with zinc-blende structure are achieved and the structural quality is improved remarkably. The epilayer grown at 340 °C displays the narrowest full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) from (0 0 4) reflection in double-crystal X-ray rocking curve (DCXRC) and the smallest root-mean-square (RMS) roughness of 0.816 nm. Additionally, samples fabricated at 320 °C were annealed in air for 30 min to study the films’ thermal stability. X-ray diffraction (XRD) results indicate that the zinc-blende structure remains unchanged when the annealing temperature is elevated to 460 °C, meaning a good thermal stability of the cubic CdSe epilayers. 相似文献

Indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films were deposited onto glass substrates by rf magnetron sputtering of ITO target and the influence of substrate temperature on the properties of the films were investigated. The structural characteristics showed a dependence on the oxygen partial pressure during sputtering. Oxygen deficient films showed (4 0 0) plane texturing while oxygen-incorporated films were preferentially oriented in the [1 1 1] direction. ITO films with low resistivity of 2.05 × 10−3 Ω cm were deposited at relatively low substrate temperature (150 °C) which shows highest figure of merit of 2.84 × 10−3 square/Ω⋅ 相似文献

Raman scattering studies were performed on hot-wall chemical vapor deposited (heteroepitaxial) silicon carbide (SiC) films grown on Si substrates with orientations of (1 0 0), (1 1 1), (1 1 0) and (2 1 1), respectively. Raman spectra suggested that good quality cubic SiC single crystals could be obtained on the Si substrate, independent of its crystallographic orientation. Average residual stresses in the epitaxially grown 3C-SiC films were measured with the laser waist focused on the epilayer surface. Tensile and compressive residual stresses were found to be stored within the SiC film and in the Si substrate, respectively. The residual stress exhibited a marked dependence on the orientation of the substrate. The measured stresses were comparable to the thermal stress deduced from elastic deformation theory, which demonstrates that the large lattice mismatch between cubic SiC and Si is effectively relieved by initial carbonization. The confocal configuration of the optical probe enabled a stress evaluation along the cross-section of the sample, which showed maximum tensile stress magnitude at the SiC/Si interface from the SiC side, decreasing away from the interface in varied rate for different crystallographic orientations. Defocusing experiments were used to precisely characterize the geometry of the laser probe in 3C-SiC single crystal. Based on this knowledge, a theoretical convolution of the in-depth stress distribution could be obtained, which showed a satisfactory agreement with stress values obtained by experiments performed on the 3C-SiC surface. 相似文献

Li-N dual-doped p-type ZnO (ZnO:(Li,N)) thin films have been prepared by pulsed laser deposition. The introduction of Li and N was confirmed by secondary ion mass spectrometry measurements. The structural, electrical, and optical properties as a function of growth temperature were investigated in detail. The lowest room-temperature resistivity of 3.99 Ω cm was achieved at the optimal temperature of 450 °C, with a Hall mobility of 0.17 cm2/V s and hole concentration of 9.12 × 1018 cm−3. The ZnO:(Li,N) films exhibited good crystal quality with a complete c-axis orientation, a high transmittance (about 90%) in the visible region, and a predominant UV emission at room temperature. The two-layer-structure p-ZnO:(Li,N)/n-ZnO homojunctions were fabricated on a sapphire substrate. The current-voltage characteristics exhibited the rectifying behavior of a typical p-n junction. 相似文献

Al and Sb codoped ZnO nanorod ordered array thin films have been deposited on glass substrate with a ZnO seed layer by hydrothermal method at different growth time. The effect of growth time on structure, Raman shift, and photoluminescence (PL) was studied. The thin films at growth time of 5 h consist of nanorods growth vertically oriented with ZnO seed layer, and the nanorods with an average diameter of 27.8 nm and a length of 1.02 μm consist of single crystalline wurtzite ZnO crystal and grow along [0 0 1] direction. Raman scattering analysis demonstrates that the thin films at the growth time of 5 h have great Raman shift of 15 cm−1 to lower wavenumber and have low asymmetrical factor Гa/Гb of 1.17. Room temperature photoluminescence reveals that there is more donor-related PL in films with growth time of 5 h. 相似文献

Barium ferrite thin films have been prepared by radio frequency magnetron sputtering on a sapphire (0 0 1) substrate at substrate temperature of 500 °C and 650 °C, respectively. The films were further annealed in air at 1000 °C for 5 h. X-ray diffraction shows that the films at the lower substrate temperatures have a good epitaxial relation with respect to the substrate, while the samples under the higher substrate temperatures have (1 0 9) planes parallel to the substrate. The remanence ratio decreases from 0.82 to 0.47 when the substrate temperature is increased. We attribute the variation of the growth direction to the enhanced vertical mobility of the deposited atoms when the substrate temperature is increased. 相似文献

Transparent conducting thin films of fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) have been deposited onto the preheated glass substrates of different thickness by spray pyrolysis process using SnCl4·5H2O and NH4F precursors. Substrate thickness is varied from 1 to 6 mm. The films are grown using mixed solvent with propane-2-ol as organic solvent and distilled water at optimized substrate temperature of 475 °C. Films of thickness up to 1525 nm are grown by a fine spray of the source solution using compressed air as a carrier gas. The films have been characterized by the techniques such as X-ray diffraction, optical absorption, van der Pauw technique, and Hall effect. The as-deposited films are preferentially oriented along the (2 0 0) plane and are of polycrystalline SnO2 with a tetragonal crystal structure having the texture coefficient of 6.19 for the films deposited on 4 mm thick substrate. The lattice parameter values remain unchanged with the substrate thickness. The grain size varies between 38 and 48 nm. The films exhibit moderate optical transmission up to 70% at 550 nm. The figure of merit (φ) varies from 1.36×10−4 to 1.93×10−3 Ω−1. The films are heavily doped, therefore degenerate and exhibit n-type electrical conductivity. The lowest sheet resistance (Rs) of 7.5 Ω is obtained for a typical sample deposited on 4 mm thick substrate. The resistivity (ρ) and carrier concentration (nD) vary over 8.38×10−4 to 2.95×10−3 Ω cm and 4.03×1020 to 2.69×1021 cm−3, respectively. 相似文献

Thin GaAs films were prepared by pulse plating from an aqueous solution containing 0.20 M GaCl3 and 0.15 M As2O3 at a pH of 2 and at room temperature. The current density was kept as 50 mA cm−2 the duty cycle was varied in the range 10-50%. The films were deposited on titanium, nickel and tin oxide coated glass substrates. Films exhibited polycrystalline nature with peaks corresponding to single phase GaAs. Optical absorption measurements indicated a direct band gap of 1.40 eV. Photoelectrochemical cells were made using the films as photoelectrodes and graphite as counter electrode in 1 M polysulphide electrolyte. At 60 mW cm−2 illumination, an open circuit voltage of 0.5 V and a short circuit current density of 5.0 mA cm−2 were observed for the films deposited at a duty cycle of 50%. 相似文献

ZnSe epilayers were grown on GaAs (1 0 0) substrates using MBE. The native contamination (oxide and carbon) was removed in situ from the substrate surfaces by conventional thermal cleaning and by exposure to atomic hydrogen. A maximum substrate temperature of 600 °C was required for the thermal cleaning process, while a substrate temperature of 450 °C was sufficient to clean the substrate using hydrogen. ZnSe epilayers were also grown on As capped GaAs epilayers, which were decapped at a maximum temperature of 350 °C. SIMS profiles showed the existence of oxygen at the interface for all of the substrate preparation methods. The oxygen surface coverage at the interface was found to be 0.03% for the atomic hydrogen cleaned substrate and 0.7% for the thermally cleaned substrate. 相似文献
