Substrate temperature is an importance parameter controlling nucleation and growth dynamics during the thin film epitaxy in MBE system. The most covenant methods able to determine the substrate temperature is based on some calibration procedures, where substrate temperature is calculated as a function of electric power dissipated in heater system. This paper presents possibility of substrate temperature control based on reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) intensity measurements as in situ technique. Temperature dependence of the specularly reflected electron beam intensity versus the substrate temperature is predicted by dynamical theory of electron scattering. The theoretical RHEED intensity dependence versus Si(1 1 1) substrate temperature was obtained from one-dimensional rocking-curve calculation.  相似文献

Bi-Sr-Cu-O (BSCO) thin films have been epitaxially grown on cleaned SrTiO3 (001) substrates by a sequentially shutter-controlled molecular beam epitaxy system using an oxygen radical beam. A spot intensity of specular beam in in-situ reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) was monitored during the atomic layer epitaxy. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) images of the epitaxial thin films were observed in the atmosphere at some oscillation points of the specular beam intensities. The chemical composition ratios of the films (about 100 Å) were determined from intensities of X-ray photoemission spectroscopy. The crystallinity of the films was measured by X-ray diffraction.

The amount of metal deposition corresponding to a half cycle of the intensity oscillation of the specular spot was found to be appropriate to form the flat surface. Characteristic islands were found at the surfaces covered with excess bismuth or excess copper atoms in the AFM image. The intrinsic modulated structure of the BSCO crystal was observed at the surface after the first copper deposition on Sr/Bi/SrTiO3 in the RHEED pattern.  相似文献

Zinc oxide thin films have been grown on glass substrate at room temperature by electron beam evaporation and then were annealed in annealing pressure 600 mbar at different temperatures ranging from 250 to 550 °C for 30 min. Electrical, optical and structural properties of thin films such as electrical resistivity, optical transmittance, band gap and grain size have been obtained as a function of annealing temperature. X-ray diffraction has shown that the maximum intensity peak corresponds to the (002) predominant orientation for ZnO films annealed at various temperatures. The full width at half maximum, decreases after annealing treatment which proves the crystal quality improvement. Scanning electron microscopy images show that the grain size becomes larger by increasing annealing temperature and this result agrees with the X-ray diffraction analysis.  相似文献

Pd-Sn bimetallic thin films were grown by molecular beam epitaxy on KCl (001) single-crystalline substrate. Substrate and deposit crystallographic structures were studied by reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED). Evolution of lattice parameter and cluster size calculated from the RHEED patterns gave information on the formation of bimetallic system. The early stages of the growth in dependence of Pd and/or Sn deposition sequence were studied. The formation of Pd-Sn core-shell structure was observed. It is composed of (001) epitaxialy oriented Pd core clusters surrounded by polycrystalline Sn and/or Pd-Sn shell. The Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) induced by high-energy electron beam and electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) were used as auxiliary methods for chemical analysis. Encapsulation of metallic clusters by the material of the substrate was approved by diffraction as well as by electron spectroscopy methods. This phenomenon influenced the formation of Pd-Sn bimetallic system.  相似文献

We investigate the growth of mismatched thin films by a kinetic Monte Carlo computer simulation and including a local photoemission model with reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) intensity for comparison. The strain is introduced through an elastic energy term based on a valence force field approximation. We describe an atomistic mechanism for dislocation nucleation during first stage of GaSb/GaAs (001) growth and in situ variations of photoemission current (PE) and RHEED intensity are reported. We have shown the formation of grooves corresponding to (111) facets, a precursor to the formation of misfit defects. The surface roughening and facetting by creation of grooves explain the absence of photoemission and RHEED oscillations in accordance with experimental observations [J.J. Zinck and D.H. Chow, J. Cryst. Growth, 175/176 (1997) 323, J.J. Zinck and D.H Chow, Appl. Phys. Lett. 66 (1995) 3524].  相似文献

In this project the initiation and propagation of short fatigue cracks in the metastable β‐titanium alloy TIMETAL®LCB is investigated. By means of an interferometric strain/displacement gauge system (ISDG) to measure the crack opening displacement (COD) and the electron back scattered diffraction technique (EBSD) to determine the orientation of individual grains the microstructural influence on short crack initiation and growth can be characterized. Finite element calculations show a high influence of the elastic anisotropy on the initiation sites of cracks. Crack propagation takes place transgranulary along slip planes as well as intergranulary along grain boundaries. The crack growth rate depends strongly on the active mechanism at the crack tip which in turn is influenced by crack length, the applied stress and the orientation of the grains involved. The value of the steady state crack closure stress changes from a positive value at low applied stresses (roughness induced) to a negative one at higher applied stresses (due to plastic deformations at the crack tip). The crack growth simulation is realised by a two‐dimensional boundary element technique, which contains the ideas of Navarro und de los Rios. The model includes the sequence of the applied stress amplitude as well as the experimental measured roughness induced crack closure.  相似文献

The growth dynamics of GaAs, AlAs and (Al, Ga)As films grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on GaAs(110) and (111)A substrates have been studied using reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED) intensity oscillations and scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM). In contrast to growth on (001) oriented substrates, the period of the RHEED intensity oscillation does not in general provide a measure of the growth rate. This is explained by the very different surface chemistry involved, since the short lifetime of arsenic molecules (As2 or As4) on non-(001) surfaces results in cation-stable surface conditions, which generate arsenic (anion)- induced intensity oscillations, whereas on (001) surfaces they are cationinduced under all normal growth conditions. The effects of this behaviour on surface morphology are illustrated, as are the relative influences of Ga and Al. STM images obtained during the first few monolayers of growth provide a detailed indication of the growth mode and in particular explain in a simple manner the origin of bilayer period RHEED intensity oscillations obtained during growth on GaAs (110).  相似文献

CW-diode laser crystallization of amorphous silicon (a-Si) deposited by sputtering or by electron beam evaporation onto different substrates (glass without or with SiNx or SiO2 intermediate layers) is investigated. The resulting grain sizes and orientations are characterized by electron backscatter diffraction, optical microscopy, and x-ray diffraction. We demonstrate that 200 nm thick sputtered a-Si layers can be crystallized on all of the used substrates to result in grains from 1 up to 100 μm in size, depending on the laser irradiation parameters (intensity, exposure time). Electron beam evaporated a-Si films can be crystallized only on sputtered SiNx intermediate layers to result in grains of 100 μm in size. Similar crystallographic film properties follow from laser treatment if the product of laser peak intensity and square root of exposure time is kept constant, independent of the scan velocity used. A high fraction of preferred (100)-oriented silicon grains can only be observed for samples with crystallites less than 10 μm in size.  相似文献

In this work, a recently developed electron diffraction technique called diffraction scanning transmission electron microscopy (D-STEM) is coupled with precession electron microscopy to obtain quantitative local texture information in damascene copper interconnects (1.8 μm-70 nm in width) with a spatial resolution of less than 5 nm. Misorientation and trace analysis is performed to investigate the grain boundary distribution in these lines. The results reveal strong variations in texture and grain boundary distribution of the copper lines upon downscaling. Lines of width 1.8 μm exhibit a strong <111> normal texture and comprise large micron-size grains. Upon downscaling to 180 nm, a {111}<110> bi-axial texture has been observed. In contrast, narrower lines of widths 120 and 70 nm reveal sidewall growth of {111} grains and a dominant <110> normal texture. The microstructure in these lines comprises clusters of small grains separated by high angle boundaries in the vicinity of large grains. The fraction of coherent twin boundaries also reduces with decreasing line width.  相似文献

Lattice distortions of deformed aluminium macrocrystals were observed by Electron-microprobe-Kossel techniques. Grain boundary effects due to deformation appeared in various ways such as extraordinary separation and branching of Kossel lines, and as intergranular rotation of the grains in pseudo-Kossel X-ray diffraction patterns obtained from the grain boundary regions of the specimens. Such distortions of the patterns peculiar to the grain boundary regions were attributed to the effect of local slipping induced by the active slip systems of the neighbouring crystals. By the interpretation of these patterns and the orientation relationships between neighbouring grains, it was found that the local slipping was induced towards the slip direction of the active slip plane in the neighbouring crystals, or induced by a type of local stress along the slip direction of the active slip planes in the neighbouring crystals. It was also recognised that at an early stage of stressing, deformation bands were produced in the grain boundary region as a result of a grain boundary effect.  相似文献

Diamond is one of the most important functional materials for film applications due to its extreme physical and mechanical properties, many of which depend on the crystallographic texture. The influence of various deposition parameters matters to the texture formation and evolution during chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of diamond films. In this overview, the texture evolutions are presented in terms of both simulations and experimental observations. The crystallographic textures in diamond are simulated based on the van der Drift growth selection mechanism. The film morphology and textures associated with the growth parameters α (proportional to the ratio of the growth rate along the 〈100〉 direction to that along the 〈111〉 direction) are presented and determined by applying the fastest growth directions. Thick films with variations in substrate temperature, methane concentration, film thickness, and nitrogen addition were analyzed using high-resolution electron back-scattering diffraction (HR-EBSD) as well as X-ray diffraction (XRD), and the fraction variations of fiber textures with these deposition parameters were explained. In conjunction with the focused ion beam (FIB) technique for specimen preparation, the grain orientations in the beginning nucleation zones were studied using HR-EBSD (50 nm step size) in another two sets of thin films deposited with variations in methane concentration and substrate material. The microstructures, textures, and grain boundary character were characterized. Based on the combination of an FIB unit for serial sectioning and HR-EBSD, diamond growth dynamics was observed using a 3D EBSD technique, with which individual diamond grains were investigated in 3D. Microscopic defects were observed in the vicinity of the high-angle grain boundaries by using the transmission electron microscopy (TEM) technique, and the advances of TEM orientation microscopy make it possible to identify the grain orientations in nano-crystalline diamond.  相似文献

The initial stages of growth of epitaxial (1 1 0) niobium, tantalum, and molybdenum films on (1 1 2 0) sapphire by molecular beam epitaxy, MBE, are analyzed in situ by reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED), and ex situ by high-resolution electron microscopy (HREM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques. The RHEED analysis shows that both Nb and Ta initially deposit (for approximately the first two monolayers in the case of Nb and the first four monolayers for Ta) with an hexagonal surface symmetry that is not consistent with the normal bcc structure of these metals, in agreement with the previous result of Oderno et al. [1] for Nb on sapphire. On further deposition, the films are observed to relax into the normal bcc (1 1 0) structure. Intensity oscillations of the RHEED specular beam are observed during both stages of growth. The RHEED oscillations are damped out after approximately 20 monolayers of Nb (30 monolayers of Ta) as a steady-state surface roughness is reached. HREM analysis reveals that the initial hexagonal structure has transformed completely to the normal bcc structure in the thicker films. The epitaxial relationships at each stage of growth are identified and a model is suggested for the development of the initial hexagonal structure based on Nb–O bonding at the interface. As the thickness of the bcc film increases, strain relief is observed by the formation of misfit dislocations. The growth mode of Mo is found to be different from that of Nb and Ta. The initial deposit grows in a three-dimensional mode with poor atomic order; the RHEED patterns are not sufficiently distinct to identify whether the hexagonal structure is formed. However, the surface becomes progressively smoother as growth proceeds and thicker films of Mo are comparable in crystalline quality, as measured by X-ray rocking curves, to Nb and Ta. The different growth mode of Mo is attributed to greater mismatch with the sapphire substrate and possibly different M–O ionic bonding at the substrate interface.  相似文献
