The physical properties of amorphous indium zinc oxynitride (a-IZON) thin films, which were deposited at room temperature by reactive RF magnetron sputtering, were investigated. The results of the investigations indicated that the a-IZON films possessed excellent qualities: high transparency with a very low resistivity from 10-3 Ω∙cm to 10-4 Ω∙cm, while the carrier concentration showed values over 1020 cm-3 with mobility between 10 and 21 cm2⸱V-1⸱s-1. The incorporated nitrogen reduces the typical crystallization of IZO and favors the deposition of transparent thin films. These results show that the IZON is an ideal amorphous material for applications in transparent and flexible optoelectronic devices.

ABSTRACTCuxO thin films have been deposited on a quartz substrate by reactive radio frequency (rf) magnetron sputtering at different target powers Pt (140-190 W) while keeping other growth process parameters fixed. Room-temperature photoluminescence (PL) measurements indicate considerable improvement of crystallinity for the films deposited at Pt>170 W, with most pronounced excitonic features being observed in the film grown using Pt=190 W. These results corroborate well with the surface morphology of the films, which was found more flat, smooth and homogeneous for Pt >170 W films in comparison with those deposited at lower powers.

ABSTRACTZn0.90Co0.10O and Zn0.85[Co0.50Fe0.50]0.15O targets were used to grow thin films by rf magnetron sputtering. XRD patterns of the films showed a strong preferred orientation along c-axis. Zn0.90Co0.10O film showed a transmittance above 75% in the visible range, while the transmittance of the Zn0.85[Co0.50Fe0.50]0.15O film was about 45%; with three absorption peaks attributed to d-d transitions of tetrahedrally coordinated Co2+. The band gap values for Zn0.90Co0.10O and Zn0.85[Co0.50Fe0.50]0.15O films were 2.95 and 2.70 eV respectively, which are slightly less than ZnO bulk. The Zn0.90Co0.10O film showed a relatively large positive magnetoresistance (MR) at the high magnetic field in the temperature range from 7 to 50 K, which reached 11.9% a 7K for the magnetoresistance. The lowest MR was found at 100 K. From M-H curve measured at room temperature shown a probable antiferromagnetic behavior, although was possible to observe little coercive field of 30 Oe and 40 Oe for Zn0.90Co0.10O and Zn0.85[Co0.50Fe0.50]0.15O films, respectively.

AbstractThis paper presents the formation and the characterization of silicon germanium oxide (SixGeyO1-x-y) infrared sensitive material for uncooled microbolometers. RF magnetron sputtering was used to simultaneously deposit Si and Ge thin films in an Ar/O2 environment at room temperature. The effects of varying Si and O composition on the thin film's electrical properties which include temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) and resistivity were investigated. The highest achieved TCR and the corresponding resistivity at room temperature were -5.41 %/K and 3.16×103 ohm cm using Si0.039Ge0.875O0.086 for films deposited at room temperature.
