<p>We report preferential orientation control in photochromic gadolinium oxyhydride (GdHO) thin films deposited by a two-step process. Gadolinium hydride (GdH<sub>2-x</sub>) films were grown by reactive magnetron sputtering, followed by oxidation in air. The preferential orientation, grain size, anion concentrations, and photochromic response of the films are strongly dependent on the deposition pressure. GdHO films show preferential orientation along the [100] direction and exhibit photochromism when synthesized at deposition pressures up to 5.8 Pa and. The photochromic contrast is larger than 20 % when the films are deposited below 2.8 Pa with 0.22 H<sub>2</sub>/Ar flow ratio. We argue that the degree of preferential orientation defines the oxygen concentration which is known to be a key parameter for photochromism in rare-earth oxyhydride thin films. The experimental observations described above are explained by the oxidation-induced decrease of the grain size as a result of the increase of the deposition pressure of the sputtering gas. </p>

ABSTRACTWe report the fabrication and the characterization of Metal Oxide Semiconductor (MOS) structure fabricated on thermally oxidized 3C-SiC grown by reactive magnetron sputtering. The structure and the composition of the SiO2 layer was studied by cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy (XTEM) Auger electron spectroscopy (AES). Homogeneous stoichiometric SiO2 layers formed with a well-defined interface to the faceted SiC(lll) top surface. Electrical properties of the MOS capacitor have been analyzed by employing the capacitance and conductance techniques. C-V curves shows the accumulation, depletion and deep depletion phases. The capacitance in the inversion regime is not saturated, as usually observed for wide-bandgap materials. The unintentional doping concentration determined from the 1/C2 curve was found to be as low as 2.8 × 1015 cm-3. The density of positive charges in the grown oxide and the interface states have been extracted by using high-frequency C-V and conductance techniques. The interface state density has been found to be in the order of 1011cm2-eV-1.
