Mechanical and physicochemical properties of AlN thin films obtained by pulsed laser deposition

AlN thin films have been deposited on Si(100) substrates by a pulsed laser deposition method. The deposition parameters (pressure, temperature, purity of target) play an important role in the mechanical and physicochemical properties. The films have been characterized using X-ray diffraction, atomic force microscopy, Brillouin light scattering, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and wettability testing. With a high purity target of AlN and a temperature deposition of 750 C, the measured Rayleigh wave velocity is close to the one previously determined for AlN films grown at high temperature by metal–organic chemical vapour deposition. Growth of nanocrystalline AlN at low temperature and of AlN film with good crystallinity for samples deposited at higher temperature is confirmed by infrared spectroscopy, as it was by atomic force microscopy, in agreement with X-ray diffraction results. A high hydrophobicity has been measured with zero polar contribution for the surface energy. These results confirm that films made by pulsed laser deposition of pure AlN at relatively low temperature have good prospects for microelectromechanical systems applications.     

FORMATION OF A BURIED LAYER OF ALUMINIUM NITRIDE BY HIGH DOSE N2+ IMPLANTATION INTO ALUMINIUM

Aluminium films with various thickness between 700 nm and 1μm were deposited on Si (100) substrates, and 400 keV N₂⁺ ions with doses ranging from 4.3×10¹⁷ to 1.8×10¹⁸ N/cm² were implanted into the alu-minium films on silicon, Rutherford Backscattering (RBS) and channeling, secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS), Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and spreading resistance probes (SRP) were used to characterize the synthesized aluminium nitride. The experiments showed that when the implantation dose was higher than a critical dose N_c, a buried stoichiometric AlN layer with high resistance was formed, while no apparent AlN XRD peaks in the as-implanted samples were observed; however, there was a strong AlN(100) diffraction peak appearing after annealing at 500 ℃ for 1h. The computer program, Implantation of Reactive Ions into Silicon (IRIS), has been modified and used to simulate the formation of the buried AlN layer as N₂⁺ is implanted into aluminium. We find a good agreement between experimental measurements and IRIS simulation.     

FeMn掺杂AlN薄膜的制备及其特性研究

采用直流磁控共溅射技术, 以Ar与N₂为源气体, 硅片为衬底成功地制备了Fe, Mn掺杂AlN薄膜. 利用X射线衍射和拉曼光谱研究了工作电流、靶基距离等工艺参数的改变对薄膜结构的影响. 利用扫描电子显微镜和能谱分析仪对薄膜的表面形貌和组成成分进行了分析. 利用振动样品磁强计在室温下对Fe, Mn掺杂AlN薄膜进行了磁性表征. Mn掺杂AlN薄膜表现出顺磁性的原因可能是由于Mn掺杂浓度较高, 在沉积过程部分Mn以团簇的形式存在, 反铁磁性的Mn团簇减弱了体系的铁磁交换作用. Fe掺杂AlN薄膜表现出室温铁磁性, 这可能是AlFeN三元化合物作用的结果. 随着Fe 掺杂AlN薄膜中Fe原子浓度从6.81%增加到16.17%, 其饱和磁化强度M_s由0.27 emu·cm^-3逐渐下降到0.20 emu·cm^-3, 而矫顽力H_c则由57 Oe增大到115 Oe (1 Oe=79.5775 A/m), 这一现象与Fe离子间距离的缩短及反铁磁耦合作用增强有关. 关键词： 直流磁控共溅射 氮化铝薄膜 结构 磁性

Initial study on the structure and photoluminescence properties of SiC films doped with Al

SiC films doped with aluminum (Al) were prepared by the rf-magnetron sputtering technique on p-Si substrates with a composite target of a single crystalline SiC containing several Al pieces on the surface. The as-deposited films were annealed in the temperature range of 400-800 °C under nitrogen ambient. The thin films have been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results show that the introduction of Al into films hinders crystalline formation process. And with the increase of annealing temperature, more Si particles are formed in the films, which strongly affect the optical absorption properties. The photoluminescence (PL) spectra of the samples show two peaks at 370 nm and 412 nm. The intensities of the PL peaks are evidently improved after Al doped. We attribute the origin of the two PL peaks to a kind of Si-related defect centres. The obtained results are expected to have important applications in modern optoelectronic devices.     

Effect of nanostructured AlN coatings on the oxidation-resistant properties of optical diamond films

Diamond film is an ultra-durable optical material with high thermal conductivity and good transmission in near-infrared and far-IR (8-14 μm) wavebands. CVD diamond is subjected to oxidation at temperature higher than 780 °C bared in air for 3 min, while it can be protected from oxidation for extended exposure in air at temperature up to 900 °C by a coating of aluminum nitride. Highly oriented AlN coatings were prepared for infrared windows on diamond films by reactive sputtering method and the average surface roughness (R_a) of the coatings was about 10 nm. The deposited films were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and atom force microscope (AFM). XRD confirmed the preferential orientation nature and AFM showed nanostructures. Optical properties of diamond films coated AlN thin film was investigated using infrared spectrum (IR) compared with that for as-grown diamond films.     

Structural and optical properties of RF magnetron sputtered aluminum nitride films without external substrate heating

We report structural and optical properties of aluminum nitride (AlN) thin films prepared by RF magnetron sputtering. A ceramic AlN target was used to sputter deposit AlN films without external substrate heating in Ar-N₂ (1:1) ambient. The X-ray diffraction and high resolution transmission electron microscopy results revealed that the films were preferentially oriented along c-axis. Cross-sectional imaging revealed columnar growth perpendicular to the substrate. The secondary ion mass spectroscopy analysis confirmed that aluminum and nitrogen distribution was uniform within the thickness of the film. The optical band gap of 5.3 eV was evaluated by UV-vis spectroscopy. Photo-luminescence broad band was observed in the range of 420-600 nm with two maxima, centered at 433 nm and 466 nm wavelengths related to the energy states originated during the film growth. A structural property correlation has been carried out to explore the possible application of such important well oriented nano-structured two-dimensional semiconducting objects.
