AbstractWe have developed successfully the combined ion beam and molecular beam epitaxy (CIBMBE) system with a newly designed Knudsen cell for Si effusion. The CIBMBE system was applied to the epitaxial growth of Sil., Cx alloy thin films on Si using low-energy ( 100 – 300 eV ) C+ ion beam. Preliminary results on the characterization of the deposited films suggest high potential and reliability of the new Knudsen cell for Si effusion, as well as high ability of the CIBMBE method to produce thermally non-equilibrium materials. In addition, they indicate that the value of x decreases with increasing IC, which suggests that the selective sputtering for deposited C atoms by incident C+ ion beams takes place during CIBMBE processing. Precipitates of β-SiC were also found to be formed in the deposited films, whose amount was observed to increase with increasing IC.

In this paper, α- Mn 2 O 3 thin films were fabricated by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy on SrTiO 3 and Nb : SrTiO 3, respectively. The grown samples showed room temperature ferromagnetism (RFM) properties. All the experimental results manifested that the RFM properties in undoped thin films were induced by oxygen vacancies formed during the growth process. Even more, the ferromagnetism of thin films grown on Nb : SrTiO 3 were enhanced, and these results confirmed the fact that oxygen vacancies induced ferromagnetism. That is to say, more oxygen vacancies result the more unpaired electrons induced prominent abnormal spin causing ferromagnetism.

A new technique developed for growing high-quality oxide thin films by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) is described. The technique uses low-energy and high density O + ion beams mass-separated from an oxygen plasma, as an oxidation source. Since O + ion beams have great oxidation ability and kinetic energy, the technique enables us to grow oxide films by MBE not only under ultrahigh vacuum comparable to the environment where semiconductors are prepared, but also at low temperatures. The application of the technique to the MBE growth of CuO, BaO, SrO and Sr–Cu–O thin films is also described.

ABSTRACTZnO (ZO) and Aluminum (Al) doped ZnO (AZO) films were grown on sapphire substrate via oxygen radical assisted molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) technique. The results of XRD measurement and temperature dependent Hall measurement confirmed that the AZO films were typically highly degenerate semiconductor with good crystallinity. The resistivity of these films were closed to the theoretical lower limit. The optical properties of these films were investigated by photoluminescence (PL) spectra and absorption spectra. Strong band-edge emission was observed in the AZO films with good crystallinity in spite of high carrier concentration more than 1020 cm-3. A sift of absorption edge to higher energy side and a gradual increase of the absorption was observed for the AZO film.
