A new polarimetric interferometer has been developed on the basis of the phase difference between transverse electric (TE)0 and transverse magnetic (TM)0 modes in a composite optical waveguide (OWG). The composite OWG consists of a single-mode potassium ion-exchanged planar waveguide overlaid with a high-index thin film that has two tapered ends and supports only the TE0 mode. Applying tapered velocity coupling theory, we found that the TE0 and TM0 modes coexisting in the potassium ion-exchanged layer were separated in the thin film region of the composite OWG: the TE0 mode was coupled into the thin film while the TM0 mode was confined in the potassium ion-exchanged layer. Interference occurs between TE- and TM-polarized output components when a single output beam is passed through a 45°-polarized analyzer. The phase difference φ between both orthogonal output components is very sensitive to the superstrate index nc in the thin film region. Our experimental results indicate that a slight change of Δnc=3.71×10-6 results in the phase-difference variation of Δφ=1° for a 5-mm-long TiO 2/K+ composite OWG with a 34-nm-thick TiO2 film. Such a simple polarimetric interferometer can be applied to chemical or biological sensors by modifying the upper film surface of the composite OWG with a chemically or biologically active substance 相似文献

Aluminum nitride (AlN) films have been grown in pure N2 plasma using cathodic arc ion deposition process. The films were prepared at different substrate bias voltages and temperatures. The aim was to investigate their influence on the Al macro-particles, structural and optical properties of deposited films. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Raman spectroscopy, Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS) were employed to characterize AlN thin films. XRD patterns indicated the formation of polycrystalline (hexagonal) films with preferential orientation of (002), which is suppressed at higher substrate bias voltage. FTIR and Raman spectroscopic analysis were used to assess the nature of chemical bonding and vibrational phonon modes of AlN thin films respectively. FTIR spectra depicted a dominant peak around 850 cm?1 corresponding to the longitudinal optical (LO) mode of vibration. A shift in this LO mode peak towards higher wavenumbers was observed with the increase of substrate bias voltage and temperature, showing the upsurge of nitrogen concentration in the deposited film. Raman spectra illustrated a peak at 650 cm?1 corresponding to E2 (high) phonon mode depicting the c-axis oriented (perpendicular to substrate) AlN film. SEM analysis showed the AlN film deposited at higher substrate bias voltage contains fewer amounts of Al macro-particles. 相似文献

使用倾斜角沉积(GLAD)的电子束蒸发技术,制备了倾斜角度在60°~85°之间的ZnS双折射雕塑薄膜(STF)。使用X射线衍射(XRD)和扫描电镜(SEM)检测了ZnS薄膜的结晶状态和断面形貌,使用Lamda-900分光光度计测量了薄膜在不同的偏振光入射时的透过率。研究发现,室温下倾斜沉积ZnS薄膜断面为倾斜柱状结构,且薄膜的结晶程度不高。在相同的监控厚度时,随倾斜角度增大,沉积到基片上的薄膜厚度逐渐变小,但仍然大于余弦曲线显示的理论厚度。根据偏振光垂直入射时薄膜的透过光谱计算了不同角度沉积的薄膜的折射率和双折射。结果显示当倾斜角度为75°时,薄膜的双折射效应最显著,此时Δn=0.044。 相似文献

To understand the origin of the increase in critical current density of rare earth barium cuprate superconductor thin films with decreasing thickness, a series of sub‐300‐nm EuBa2Cu3O7?δ thin films deposited on SrTiO3 substrates are studied by X‐ray diffraction and electrical transport measurements. The out‐of‐plane crystallographic mosaic tilt and the out‐of‐plane microstrain both increase with decreasing film thickness. The calculated density of c‐axis threading dislocations matches the extent of the observed low‐field enhancement in critical current density for fields applied parallel to c. The in‐plane mosaic twist and in‐plane microstrain are both around twice the magnitude of the out‐of‐plane values, and both increase with decreasing film thickness. The results are consistent with the observed stronger field enhancement in critical current density for fields applied parallel to ab. The lattice parameter variation with thickness is not as expected from consideration of the biaxial strain with the substrate, indicative of in‐plane microstrain accommodation by oxygen disorder. Collectively, the results point to an enhancement of critical current by interfacial strain induced oxygen disorder which is greatest closest to the film‐substrate interface. The findings of this study have important implications for other thin functional oxide perovskite films and nanostructures where surface and interfacial strains dominate the properties. 相似文献

This paper reports the realization of planar Schottky diodes based on nanorod ZnO thin film. The nanorod ZnO thin film was fabricated by hydrothermal technique on boron doped p-type Si (100) substrate. The Ag//ZnO/Al planar diode operating with voltage bias from –3 to 3 V. The I–V characteristics clearly indicate that the devices have rectifying performance. The thermionic emission theory governs the current across the studied Schottky diode. The device achieved a turn-on voltage of 0.9 V, barrier height 0.69 eV and saturation current of 1.2 × 10–6 A. The diode shows a very large ideality factor (n > > 2) which is attributed to high interface trap concentration. The surface topology was investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The structural properties of the nanostructured ZnO thin film were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The SEM images reveal that the ZnO nanorods grow perpendicular to the substrate with uniformity and high density. The XRD pattern illustrates the dominant peak appearing at (002). This intense peak indicates the c-axis orientated phase of the wurtzite ZnO structure. It demonstrates that the crystals grow uniformly perpendicular to the substrate surface in good agreement with the SEM images. 相似文献

We have investigated thin film composites of YBa2Cu3O7 (YBCO) with Ag for fluxonic device applications. YBCO/Ag composite films are produced by first depositing a layer of Ag onto a substrate and then heating the film to the YBCO deposition temperature of 680°C or higher. YBCO is deposited by off-axis sputtering onto the Ag-coated substrate. The resulting YBCO/Ag film is a composite of YBCO with well-defined Ag regions several microns in size. Scanning electron micrograph images of the films' surfaces show a background of smooth YBCO grains dotted with Ag clusters. For a wide range of increasing Ag composition, the transition temperatures of the composite films on SrTiO3 remain high, while the critical current densities have been reduced as much as 65 times. On MgO substrates, critical current density has been reduced by more than four orders of magnitude. Also on MgO, significant voltage response is seen in external magnetic fields of less than 1 mT. These measurements suggest that the films may be arrays of superconductor-normal-superconductor (SNS) junctions formed by weakly coupled YBCO grains with Ag in the grain boundaries. The field responsivity and low critical current densities of these composites make them potentially useful for fabrication of fluxonic devices 相似文献

La and Ga substituted yttrium iron garnet single-mode buried channel waveguides, prepared using liquid-phase-epitaxial growth and Ar ion beam etching, have been successfully applied as 45° nonreciprocal waveguide rotators (NRWR) for hybrid integrated waveguide isolators at λ=1.55 μm. The optical and magneto-optical properties of the prepared 45° NRWRs and the epitaxial films are investigated in detail. We describe the assembly procedure and present optical measurement results for the hybrid integrated waveguide isolators. The hybrid isolators are composed of a 45° NRWR, a half-wave plate sheet, thin film-type polarizers, a thin plate-type permanent magnet and a silica-based waveguide on a silicon substrate. We obtained good waveguide isolators with low insertion losses (<3.2 dB) and high isolation (>25 dB) in the 1.5 μm wavelength band 相似文献

The dielectric constant and the leakage current density of (Ba, Sr)TiO3 (BST) thin films deposited on various bottom electrode materials (Pt, Ir, IrO2/Ir, Ru, RuO2/Ru) before and after annealing in O2 ambient were investigated. The improvement of crystallinity of BST films deposited on various bottom electrodes was observed after the postannealing process. The dielectric constant and leakage current of the films mere also strongly dependent on the postannealing conditions. BST thin film deposited on Ir bottom electrode at 500°C, after 700°C annealing in O2 for 20 min, has the dielectric constant of 593, a loss tangent of 0.019 at 100 kHz, a leakage current density of 1.9×10 -8 A/cm2 at an electric field of 200 kV/cm with a delay time of 30 s, and a charge storage density of 53 fC/μm2 at an applied field of 100 kV/cm. The BST films deposited on Ir with post-annealing can obtain better dielectric properties than on other bottom electrodes in our experiments. And Ru electrode is unstable because the interdiffusion of Ru and Ti occurs at the interface between the BST and Ru after postannealing. The ten year lifetime of time-dependent dielectric breakdown (TDDB) studies indicate that BST on Pt, Ir, IrO2/Ir, Ru, and RuO2/Ru have long lifetimes over ten gears on operation at the voltage bias of 2 V 相似文献

Thin films deposited from solution by the hollow capillary writing technique exhibit macroscopic uniaxial grains with an in-plane arrangement of discotic stacks. We report a method to change the orientation of thin films from in-plane to homeotropic (discotic columns perpendicular to the substrate). It is observed that annealing of open supported films at a temperature 25 °C below the equilibrium LC/isotropic phase boundary induces homeotropic alignment, while rapid cooling leads to predominantly in-plane alignment. A model based on heterogeneous nucleation at the film/substrate interface accounts for the experimental observations. 相似文献

The successful fabrication of ultra‐thin films of CoFeB/Pt with strong perpendicular magnetic anisotropy and antiferromagnetic interfacial interlayer coupling on flexible polyimide substrates is demonstrated. Despite an increased surface roughness and defect density on the polyimide substrate, magnetic single layers of CoFeB still show sharp coercive switching. Magnetic Kerr imaging shows that the magnetization reversal is dominated by a greater density of nucleation sites than the identical film grown on Si. These layers maintain their magnetic characteristics down to a radius of curvature of 350 ± µm. Further, antiferromagnetically (AF) Ruderman‐Kittel‐Kasuya‐Yoshida (RKKY) coupled bilayers of CoFeB were fabricated which are robust under bending and the coupling strength is successfully modulated via interlayer engineering. Finally, a perpendicular synthetic antiferromagnetic (SAF) thin film grown on a polyimide substrate is patterned into straight 10 µm long nanowires down to 210 nm in width that displayed the robust switching characteristics of the thin film. These are extremely promising results for the fabrication of robust, flexible, magneto‐electronic, non‐volatile memory, logic, and sensor devices. 相似文献

In this work, we present a study of resistance transients (pulses) observed during noise measurements in Al-based thin films at high current densities and/or high temperatures. It was found that the maximum pulse height M gradually increases with film current density until it reaches a peak at a critical film temperature, Tc. Above the critical temperature, M decreases to a value close to its initial value then increases with the film current density. It was also found that the critical temperature is 254°C for the Al-Si(0.75%)-Cu(0.5%) samples used in this study. In addition, it was found that the number of pulses detected per measurement period increases with increasing film current density. A new technique for determining the electromigration activation energy from the Arrhenius plot of M versus film temperature is also presented. The activation energy values determined using this new technique were between 0.58 and 0.77 eV for the Al-Si(0.75%)-Cu(0.5%) samples 相似文献

衬底温度对ZnO薄膜氧缺陷的影响 总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2
采用射频磁控溅射在石英玻璃和单晶硅Si(100)衬底上制备了ZnO薄膜,研究了衬底温度对ZnO薄膜中氧缺陷的影响。实验发现,ZnO薄膜c轴取向性随温度的升高而增强;当衬底温度达到550。C时,XRD谱上仅出现一个强的(002)衍射峰和一个弱的(004)衍射峰,显示ZnO具有优异c轴取向性。同时,随着温度的升高,ZnO薄膜的紫外透射截止边带向高波长方向漂移,其电导率也随衬底温度的升高逐渐增大,表明薄膜中的氧缺陷逐渐增多。这种氧缺陷是由于ZnO的氧平衡分压高于Zn所致,可通过提高溅射气体中氧含量来改善。 相似文献

CeO2/YSZ/CeO2 buffer layers were prepared on biaxial textured Ni-5at.%W substrate by direct-current magnetron reactive sputtering with the optimum process. YBCO thin films were deposited on CeO2/YSZ/CeO2 buffered Ni-5at.%W substrate at temperature ranging from 500℃ to 700℃ by diode de sputtering. By optimizing substrate temperature, pure c-axis oriented YBCO films were obtained. The mierostruetures of CeO2/YSZ/CeO2 buffer layers were characterized by X-ray diffraction. A smooth, dense and crack-free surface morphology was observed with scanning electron microscopy. The critical current density Jc about 0.75 MA/cm2 at 77 K was obtained. 相似文献

A Nernst effect has been observed in a high temperature superconductor for the first time. Irradiating superconducting Tl?Ba?Ca?Cu?O thin films by short pulses of a TEA-CO2 laser, a photovoltaic signal is detected perpendicular to a magnetic field applied parallel to the film surface. The signal is attributed to magnetic flux line depinning and flux line transport driven by the laser induced temperature gradient. The results are described by thermal flux line activation leading to a calculated distribution of pinning energies from 100 K to 4000 K. 相似文献

In this paper rapid thermal processing (RTP) is studied for the crystallization and oxidation of deposited silicon layers. The purpose is to present and compare the results obtained by RTP, low temperature processing (LTP), or a combination of both, for the fabrication of polycrystalline silicon thin film transistors (poly-TFT's). The polysilicon and polyoxide are obtained by low thermal annealing, oxidation (LTA, O) and/or rapid thermal annealing, oxidation (RTA, O) of amorphous silicon films deposited from disilane at a temperature of 465°C. For the Si films annealed at 750°C or higher, using RTA, the grain average sizes are reduced whereas the electron/hole mobilities are increased. We suggest that there is a correlation between the optical extinction coefficient k (at λ=405 nm), the potential barrier height ΦB due to the grains, and the field-effect mobility, μn,p, of the polysilicon film. This correlation indicates that the polysilicon film electrical properties depend not only on the grain size, but also on the crystalline quality of the grains. Moreover, it appears that the large amount of crystalline defects remaining in the so-called “grains” of the films annealed at 600°C (LTA) are partially annihilated when the films are annealed at higher temperatures. With regards to the TFT's electrical characteristics, the work suggests combining RT and LT steps to obtain TFT's with improved electrical performance 相似文献
