控制降温对近空间升华法沉积CdZnTe薄膜形貌与结构的影响

采用场发射扫描电镜和X射线衍射技术研究了生长结束后的降温过程对以近空间升华法生长的CdZnTe薄膜形貌与结构的影响。分析了快速(炉冷,673K以上-8K/min)和慢速(-2K/min)两种降温速率下获得的CdZnTe薄膜的结构与形貌,并考察了降温中是否阻断生长源向薄膜的传质的影响。结果表明,所得到的薄膜均为闪锌矿结构,降温时薄膜的持续生长将抑制晶粒在平面内铺展而使其棱角钝化的趋势,以较慢的速率降温和降温时阻断传质均有利于提高薄膜的致密度,降低粗糙度及薄膜的织构强度。

The growth and the interfacial layer of CdZnTe nano-crystalline films by vacuum evaporation

Nano-crystalline CdZnTe films were fabricated by thermal vacuum evaporation. The structure and surface morphology of the CdZnTe films were determined by XRD and SEM. The CdZnTe films were poly-crystalline with preferential (111) orientation. The CdZnTe films exhibited a typical particle size of 15 nm and a blue shift in the absorption with an effective band gap of 2.26 eV. An amorphous Te interfacial layer with thickness of 3 nm was observed with high resolution transmission electron microscopy, which should be formed at the initial stage of the growth. This is because the equilibrium vapor pressure of Cd is largely higher than that of Te₂ at the growth temperature, and the desorption rate of Cd atoms is much higher than that of and Te₂ molecules. The amorphous interfacial layer should be favorable for the formation of nano-crystalline CdZnTe film.

Control of morphology and optical properties of PbS nanostructured thin films by deposition parameters: study of mechanism

PbS thin films were grown on glass substrates by chemical bath deposition (CBD) using lead nitrate, thiourea and sodium hydroxide in aqueous solutions at three different temperatures (22, 36 and 50?°C). The microstructure and morphology evolution of the films were investigated using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. Optical properties were studied using UV–Vis–IR spectroscopy. The results indicate that temperature plays an important role in controlling the morphology and optical properties of nanostructured PbS thin films through changing deposition mechanism. The active deposition mechanism changed from cluster to ion-by-ion mechanism with an increase in deposition temperature from 22 to 50?°C, and consequently, film properties such as morphology, optical absorption and preferred orientation changed completely.     

Surface morphology and properties of GaAs epilayers controlled by temperature difference method of liquid phase epitaxy

Epilayers of gallium arsenide were grown by using the steady-state temperature difference method of liquid phase epitaxy. The surface of grown layers was smooth and shiny. Carrier concentrations of films varying from 10¹⁶ to 10¹⁷ cm⁻³ could be obtained with good reproducibility. The surface morphology growth rate, carrier concentration and Hall mobility of the epilayers were studied. Several distinct types of surface features were also investigated and explained. A segregation coefficient for the net carrier concentration versus tin concentration in the growth melt was calculated as 1·84 × 10⁻⁴ at 700°C for (100) GaAs substrate. Thickness control for epilayers down to submicron can be obtained reproducibly.     

Local surface morphology and chemistry of SnO2 thin films deposited by rheotaxial growth and thermal oxidation method for gas sensor application

In this paper experimental results of a comparative X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) study of the crystalline structure, the local morphology, and the surface and in-depth chemistry of SnO₂ thin films obtained by Rheotaxial Growth and Thermal Oxidation (RGTO) method are presented. XRD rules out even a minor presence of a coexisting SnO phase. AFM and SEM show a fractal like morphology of nanograins (20 nm typical size) agglomerated in clusters of crystallites with a bimodal size distribution. XPS shows that the surface of the SnO₂ crystallites is slightly under-stoichiometric as expected from the oxygen deficient termination of their facets. Noteworthy, as evidenced by XPS depth profiles, there are no significant changes of the surface chemistry of the RGTO film with argon ion sputtering.
