Pulsed laser deposition without a catalyst is used to grow ZnO nanorods less than 10 nm in diameter. The structure of the
rods is studied by Raman scattering during excitation in the visible and UV regions. The temperature dependences of exciton
spectra and the behavior of green luminescence are investigated in the temperature range 10–280 K. At room temperature, the
luminescence intensity of the ZnO nanorods in the exciton region is higher than the green luminescence intensity by a factor
of 7.8. 相似文献

We have studied temperature dependent photoluminescence (PL) from ZnO Multiple Quantum Wells (MQWs) of different well layer thicknesses in the range 1–4 nm grown on (0001) sapphire by a novel in-house developed buffer assisted pulsed laser deposition. At 10 K the PL peak shifted toward blue with decreasing well layer thickness and at constant well layer thickness the PL peak shifted towards red with increasing temperature. To the best of our knowledge we have observed for the first time an efficient room temperature (RT) PL emanating from such MQWs. The red shift of the PL peak with increasing temperature has been found to be due to the band gap shrinkage in accordance with the Varshni’s empirical relation. The spectral linewidth was found to increase with increasing temperature due to the scattering of excitons with acoustic and optical phonons in different temperature regimes. Both at RT and at 10 K the PL peak shifted with respect to the well layer thickness in the range of 3.35–3.68 eV with decreasing thickness in agreement with the calculated values. 相似文献

Wurtzite zinc oxides films (ZnO) were deposited on silicon (0 0 1) and corning glass substrates using the pulsed laser deposition technique. The laser fluence, target-substrate distance, substrate temperature of 300 °C were fixed while varying oxygen pressures from 2 to 500 Pa were used. It is observed that the structural properties of ZnO films depend strongly on the oxygen pressure and the substrate nature. The film crystallinity improves with decreasing oxygen pressure. At high oxygen pressure, the films are randomly oriented, whereas, at low oxygen pressures they are well oriented along [0 0 1] axis for Si substrates and along [1 0 3] axis for glass substrates. A honeycomb structure is obtained at low oxygen pressures, whereas microcrystalline structures were obtained at high oxygen pressures. The effect of oxygen pressure on film transparency, band gap Eg and Urbach energies was investigated. 相似文献

Transparent aluminum-doped zinc oxide (AZO) thin films were deposited on quartz glass substrates by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) from ablating Zn-Al metallic targets. The structural, electrical and optical properties of these films were characterized as a function of Al concentration (0-8 wt.%) in the target. Films were deposited at a low substrate temperature of 150 °C under 11 Pa of oxygen pressure. It was observed that 2 wt.% of Al in the target (or 1.37 wt.% of Al doped in the AZO film) is the optimum concentration to achieve the minimum film resistivity and strong ultraviolet emission. The presence of Al in the ZnO film changes the carrier concentration and the intrinsic defects. 相似文献

In this report we demonstrate that high quality epitaxial heterostructures, based on metallic SrRuO3 and insulating SrTiO3 individual blocks a few unit cells thick, can be grown in a purely 2D, layer-by-layer mode, using pulsed laser deposition
with in situ reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED) diagnostics. The thickness of each constituent block can be controlled
at the level of a single unit cell. A detailed investigation carried out at the synchrotron facility, ESRF, by various X-ray
techniques has demonstrated that each intensity oscillation of the RHEED specular spot corresponds strictly to the growth
of a single perovskite unit cell, either SrRuO3 or SrTiO3. Furthermore, we show that, in these structures, the interfaces between the different constituent blocks are very sharp with
a roughness of only one unit cell.

The pulsed laser deposition technique was used to produce zinc oxide thin films onto silicon and Corning glass substrates. Homogeneous surfaces exhibiting quite small Root Mean Square (RMS) roughness, consisting of shaped grains were obtained, their grain diameters being 40-90 nm at room temperature and at 650 °C growth respectively. Films were polycrystalline, even for growth at room temperature, with preferential crystallite orientation the (0 0 2) basal plane of wurtzite ZnO. Temperature increase caused evolution from grain to grain agglomeration structures, improving crystallinity. Compressive to tensile stresses transition with temperature was found while the lattice constant decreased. 相似文献

In this study, we present the optical characteristics of A-plane ZnO/ZnMgO multiple quantum wells (MQWs) with different well widths grown on R-plane sapphire substrates by pulsed laser deposition (PLD). The energy gaps of ZnO and ZnMgO have been observed by photoluminescence (PL) and absorption spectra. The electrons confined in the ZnO wells transit from the electron ground sub-band to the heavy-hole ground sub-band (noted as 11H) located at 3.40 and 3.57 eV for the ZnO/ZnMgO MQWs samples with well widths of 5.6 and 1.2 nm, respectively. The strong anisotropic polarization characteristic has been studied by polarization-dependent PL measurements. For comparison, we also calculated the transition energies of different well thicknesses varying from 1 to 6 nm. The theoretical results match quite well with the experimental values and revealing the suitable conduction band offset Qc=0.6. The temperature dependence of PL spectra is being investigated, in the temperature range between 10 and 300 K. 相似文献

morphology, stoichiometry (WDX, RBS and PIXE), excitation spectra, fluorescence, refractive index and waveguiding properties
were studied in connection with deposition conditions. The best films were crystalline and exhibited losses of approximately
5 dB cm-1 at a wavelength of 633 nm.

Novel highly c-oriented tungsten-doped zinc oxide (WZO) thin films with 1 wt% were grown by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique on corning 1737F glass substrate. The effects of laser energy on the structural, morphological as well as optical transmission properties of the films were studied. The films were highly transparent with average transmittance exceeding 87% in the wavelength region lying between 400 and 2500 nm. X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) results indicated that the WZO films had c-axis preferred orientation with wurtzite structure. Film thickness and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the (0 0 2) peaks of the films were found to be dependent on laser fluence. The composition determined through Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy (RBS) appeared to be independent of the laser fluence. By assuming a direct band gap transition, the band gap values of 3.36, 3.34 and 3.31 eV were obtained for corresponding laser fluence of 1, 1.7 and 2.7 J cm−2, respectively. Compared with the reported undoped ZnO band gap value of 3.37 eV, it is conjectured that the observed low band gap values obtained in this study may be attributable to tungsten incorporation in the films as well as the increase in laser fluence. The high transparency makes the films useful as optical windows while the high band gap values support the idea that the films could be good candidates for optoelectronic applications. 相似文献

Optical and structural parameters of the ZnO thin film grown by pulsed filtered cathodic vacuum arc deposition 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Transparent conductive ZnO film was deposited on glass substrate by pulsed filtered cathodic vacuum arc deposition (PFCVAD). Optical parameters such as absorption coefficient α, the refractive index n, energy band gap Eg and dielectric constants have been determined using different methods. Kramers-Kronig and dispersion relations were employed to determine the complex refractive index and dielectric constants using reflection data in the ultraviolet-visible-near infrared regions. The spectra of the dielectric coefficient were used to calculate the energy band gap and the value was 3.24 eV. The experimental energy band gap was found to be 3.22 eV for 357 nm thick ZnO thin film. The envelope method was also used to calculate the refractive index and the data were consistent with K-K relation results. The structure of the film was analyzed with an x-ray diffractometer and the film was polycrystalline in nature with preferred (002) orientation. 相似文献

A limited number of reports exists in the literature concerning the systematic study of the structural and optical properties of ZnO thin films, produced by pulsed laser ablation, in correlation with the deposition parameters adopted. In this paper we present a characterization of a sample prepared by this technique and studied by photoelectron spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. The dielectric function of both target and films has been deduced by reflection electron energy loss spectroscopy. 相似文献

To extend the applicability of ZnO, with the bulk band gap of about 3.3 eV, into deep UV region, we have grown a multilayer of alumina capped ZnO quantum dots of mean in-plane sizes in the range of ∼1.8-3.6 nm at room temperature using alternate Pulsed Laser Deposition. Size dependent blue shift of the band gap of these dots up to ∼4.5 eV is observed in the optical absorbance spectra. The observed blue shift can be understood using the effective mass approximation in weak and strong confinement regimes. 相似文献

A ZnO homojunction light emitting device was grown on n+ GaAs substrate by pulsed laser deposition. As-doped ZnO film by diffusion of As from the substrate was used for the p-type side and Al-doped ZnO film for the n-type side of the device. A distinct electroluminescence emission consisting of a dominant emission peak at ∼2.5 eV and a weak shoulder centered at ∼3.0 eV was observed at room temperature. The I-V characteristic of the ZnO homojunction showed a good rectifying behavior with a turn-on voltage of ∼4.5 V and a reverse breakdown voltage of ∼9 V. 相似文献

Phosphorus-doped ZnO films were grown by pulsed laser deposition using a ZnO:P2O5-doped target as the phosphorus source with the aim of producing p-type ZnO material. ZnO:P layers (with phosphorus concentrations of between 0.01 to 1 wt%) were grown on a pure ZnO buffer layer. The electrical properties of the films were characterised from temperature dependent Hall-effect measurements. The samples typically showed weak n-type conduction in the dark, with a resistivity of 70 Ω cm, a Hall mobility of μn0.5 cm2 V −1 s−1 and a carrier concentration of n3×1017 cm−3 at room temperature. After exposure to an incandescent light source, the samples underwent a change in conduction from n- to p-type, with an increase in mobility and decrease in concentration for temperatures below 300 K. 相似文献

ZnO thin films were deposited at room temperature by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) varying the oxygen pressure. Morphological analysis using scanning electron microscope (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) demonstrated the formation of ZnO nanorods at a particular oxygen pressure. Room temperature violet luminescence was observed from these ZnO nanorods and temperature dependence of luminescence was studied. Influence of oxygen pressure on the growth of ZnO thin films by PLD was studied using the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy of both post ablated targets and deposited films. The ZnO films were crystalline and the formation of crystalline phase is found to follow a pressure–temperature (P–T) scaling with increase of temperature. 相似文献

Highly transparent and conducting Chromium doped ZnO (Cr:ZnO) thin films with preferential c-axis orientation were grown on (0 0 0 1) sapphire substrates using buffer assisted pulsed laser deposition. The resistivity of Cr:ZnO thin films was found to decrease to a minimum value of ∼1.13×10−3Ω cm with the increasing Cr concentration up to ∼1.9 at.% and then increase with further increase of Cr concentration. On the contrary, the band gap and carrier concentration of Cr:ZnO thin films increased up to ∼3.37 eV and ∼2×1020 cm−3, respectively, with the increase of Cr concentration up to ∼1.9 at.%, then decreased with further increase of Cr concentration. The increase of carrier concentration and conductivity with Cr doping at low Cr concentrations (<1.9 at.%) could be attributed to the presence of Cr in +3 valence state in ZnO thus acting as donor while decrease of carrier concentration beyond ∼1.9 at.% of Cr concentration could be attributed to the charge compensating effect due to the presence of acceptor like point defects such as oxygen interstitials. This was experimentally confirmed using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The observed variation in the band gap of Cr:ZnO thin films with increasing Cr doping was attributed to the competing effects of the high free carrier concentration induced Burstein-Moss blue shift and band gap narrowing. 相似文献

Lead sulfide (PbS) nano-structured film has been grown on quartz substrates by the PLD technique. The deposited films were
characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), selected area electron diffraction (SAED), transmission electron microscopy (TEM)
and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Formation of cubic phase of PbS nanocrystals is proven. The absorption and emission
spectra were measured for different thicknesses of the films. I–V characteristics and photoconductivity of the deposited film were also measured. The results indicate an efficient performance
of the deposited films as an optical detector. 相似文献

ZnO thin films were grown on Si(1 0 0) substrates using pulsed laser deposition in O2 gas ambient (10 Pa) and at different substrate temperatures (25, 150, 300 and 400 °C). The influence of the substrate temperature on the structural and morphological properties of the films was investigated using XRD, AFM and SEM. At substrate temperature of T=150 °C, a good quality ZnO film was fabricated that exhibits an average grain size of 15.1 nm with an average RMS roughness of 3.4 nm. The refractive index and the thickness of the thin films determined by the ellipsometry data are also presented and discussed. 相似文献

Vanadium-doped ZnO films (Zn1−xVxO, where x = 0.02, 0.03, 0.05 and 0.07), were formed from ceramic targets on c-cut sapphire substrates using pulsed laser deposition at substrate temperature of 600 °C and oxygen pressure of 10 Pa. In order to clarify how the vanadium concentration influences the films’ properties, structural and magnetic investigations were performed. All films crystallised in wurtzite phase and presented a c-axis preferred orientation at low concentrations of vanadium. The results implied that the doping concentration and crystalline microstructure influence strongly the system's magnetic characteristics. Weak ferromagnetism was registered for the film with the lowest doping concentration (2 at.%), which exhibited a ferromagnetic behavior at Curie temperature higher than 300 K. Increasing the vanadium content in the film caused degradation of the magnetic ordering. 相似文献
