氧离子后处理对氧化铟锡(ITO)薄膜电学和光学性能的影响

采用氧离子束对电子束蒸发制备且退火后的氧化铟锡(ITO)薄膜进行轰击后处理.经XPS检测发现氧元素在薄膜内含量增加,在深度方向上的梯度差下降.表面Sn4+含量增加,即掺杂离子浓度和载流子浓度提高,从而使薄膜方块电阻显著降低.当氧离子继续轰击时,薄膜的方块电阻保持平稳;同时,透过率曲线蓝移,紫外波段(300～400 nm)的平均透过率提高而可见光范围内(400 ～800 nm)的平均透过率略有下降,这种变化缘于薄膜的禁带宽度与折射率的增加.

Preparation of indium tin oxide thin films without external heating for application in solar cells

Indium tin oxide (ITO) films were grown without external heating in an ambient of pure argon by RF-magnetron sputtering method. The influence of argon ambient pressure on the electro-optical properties of as-deposited ITO films was investigated. The morphology, structural and optical properties of ITO films were examined and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and UV–VIS transmission spectroscopy. The deposited ITO films with a thickness of 300 nm show a high transparency between 80% and 90% in the visible spectrum and 14–120 Ω/□ sheet resistance under different conditions. The ITO films deposited in the optimum argon ambient pressure were used as transparent electrical contacts for thin film Cu(In,Ga)Se₂ (CIGS) solar cells. CIGS solar cells with efficiencies of the order of 7.0% were produced without antireflective films. The results have demonstrated that the developed ITO deposition technology has potential applications in thin film solar cells.     

Microstructural,optical and electrical properties of GeO2 thin films prepared by sol‐gel method

GeO₂ thin films were prepared by sol‐gel method on ITO/Glass substrate. The electrical and optical properties and the microstructures of these films were investigated with special emphasis on the effects of an annealing treatment in ambient air. The films were annealed at various temperatures from 500 °C to 700 °C. Structural analysis through X‐ray diffraction (XRD) and atomic force microscope (AFM) showed that surface structure and morphological characteristics were sensitive to the treatment conditions. The optical transmittance spectra of the GeO₂/ITO/Glass were measured using a UV‐visible spectrophotometer. All films exhibited GeO₂ (101) orientation perpendicular to the substrate surface where the grain size increased with increasing annealing temperature. The optical transmittance spectroscopy further revealed high transparency (over 70 %) in the wave range 400 – 800 nm of the visible region. At an annealing temperature level of 700 °C, the GeO₂ films were found to possess a leakage current density of 1.31×10^‐6A/cm² at an electrical field of 20 kV/cm. (© 2011 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Conversion of CuS thin films to structured nanosheet CuyS (1 < y ≦ 2) by vacuum annealing

In this study, large‐area and uniform thickness novel nano‐sheet structured CuS thin films on ITO glass have been prepared by the one‐step electrodeposition method from a dimethyl sulfoxide solution. Thin films of completely preserved nano‐sheet like morphology of Cu_yS (y = 1.75, 1.8, 1.95, and 2.0) are grown by vacuum annealing CuS thin films at 500 °C for different lengths of time. The 500 °C sample heated for 10 hours was nearly converted to single phase of Cu₂S with y ∼ 2. The optical direct band gaps of nano‐sheet Cu_yS thin films annealed at 500 °C of 2, 6, and 10 hours in vacuum were found to be 1.94, 1.68, and 1.44 eV, respectively.

Spray pyrolysis deposition and characterization of highly (100) oriented magnesium oxide thin films

Transparent dielectric thin films of MgO has been deposited on quartz substrates at different temperatures between 400 and 600°C by a pneumatic spray pyrolysis technique using Mg(CH₃COO)₂·4H₂O as a single molecular precursor. The thermal behavior of the precursor magnesium acetate is described in the results of thermogravimetry analysis (TGA) and differential thermal analysis (DTA). The prepared films are reproducible, adherent to the substrate, pinhole free and uniform. Amongst the different spray process parameters, the substrate temperature effect has been optimized for obtaining single crystalline and transparent MgO thin films. The films crystallize in a cubic structure and X‐ray diffraction measurements have shown that the polycrystalline MgO films prepared at 500°C with (100) and (110) orientations are changed to (100) preferred orientation at 600°C. The MgO phase formation was also confirmed with the recorded Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) results. The films deposited at 600°C exhibited highest optical transmittivity (>80%) and the direct band gap energy was found to vary from 4.50 to 5.25 eV with a rise in substrate temperature from 500 to 600°C. The measured sheet resistance and the resistivity of the film prepared at 600°C were respectively 10¹³Ω/□ and 2.06x10⁷Ω cm. The surface morphology of the prepared MgO thin films was examined by atomic force microscopy. (© 2007 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Studies on optical properties of polycrystalline SnO2:Sb thin films prepared using SnCl2 precursor

Optical properties of spray deposited antimony (Sb) doped tin oxide (SnO₂) thin films, prepared from SnCl₂ precursor, have been studied as a function of antimony doping concentration. The doping concentration was varied from 0‐4 wt.% of Sb. All the films were deposited on microscope glass slides at the optimized substrate temperature of 400 °C. The films are polycrystalline in nature with tetragonal crystal structure. The doped films are degenerate and n‐type conducting. The sheet resistance of tin oxide films was found to decrease from 38.22 Ω/□ for undoped films to 2.17 Ω/□ for antimony doped films. The lowest sheet resistance was achieved for 2 wt.% of Sb doping. To the best of our knowledge, this sheet resistance value is the lowest reported so far, for Sb doped films prepared from SnCl₂ precursor. The transmittance and reflectance spectra for the as‐deposited films were recorded in the wavelength range of 300 to 2500 nm. The transmittance of the films was observed to increase from 42 % to 55 % (at 800 nm) on initial addition of Sb and then it is decreased for higher level of antimony doping. This paper investigates the variation of optical and electrical properties of the as‐deposited films with Sb doping. (© 2003 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Orientation control of LaNiO3 thin films by RF magnetron sputtering with different oxygen partial pressure

Highly (1 1 0)- and (1 0 0)-oriented LaNiO₃ (LNO) thin films were successfully grown on Si (1 0 0) substrate using radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering at room temperature (RT). Effects of oxygen partial pressures on the orientation, film composition, surface morphology, and electrical properties of the films were investigated. The nearly complete (1 0 0) orientation was first achieved with oxygen partial pressure beyond 15% in the sputtering gas. The preferred (1 0 0) orientation of growing films is determined by uniform distribution of Ni³⁺ and La/Ni ratio in the films caused by oxygen during sputtering, as well as the lowest surface energy of the films in the crystalline process. LNO films with controlled orientation have low resistivity of 7.0×10⁻⁶ Ω m which is a good basis for integrating ferroelectric capacitors.
