Crystal Orientation and Surface Roughness of Bi Films Prepared in Ionized Cluster Beam Apparatus

ABSTRACTUltrathin films of perovskite PbTiO3, 10–100nm thick, were epitaxially grown on miscut (001)SrTiO3 substrate by rf-magnetron sputtering at 600°C. The electron microscope and high resolution x-ray diffraction analysis suggested the evidence of epitaxial growth of (001)PbTiO3/(001)SrTiO3 with three dimensional crystal orientation. The stoichiometric film shows extremely smooth surface with the surface roughness less than 3nm. Deposition on a miscut substrate under stoichiometric conditions is essential to make continuous thin films of single crystal perovskite PbTiO3.

The crystal orientation, surface morphology, surface roughness and scratch properties of Au/NiCr/Ta multi-layered metallic films was examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and a scratch test method, respectively. It was clarified that the surface morphology and surface roughness depend on the substrate temperature. The surface roughness decreases from 4.259nm to 2.935nm when substrate temperature changed from 100°C to 180°C, and then increases when substrate temperature above 180°C. The XRD revealed that there are only Au diffraction peaks with highly textured having a Au-(111) or a mixture of Au-(111) and Au-(200) orientation. The micro-scratch test reveals that both modes can be used for conventionally critical load determination, but the friction mode can additionally reflect the changes at different metallic film layers, the critical characteristic load was not sensitive to substrate temperature.

ABSTRACTPolyimide thin films are deposited by the ionized cluster beam deposition( ICBD ) technique. Polymerization and crystallization of polyimide were investigated using TEN, IR, and the electronic structure of the polyimide film was investigated using XPS. Films deposited at optimum ion acceleration voltage showed strong preferential crystal orientation. Crystalline polyimide film was obtained at ion acceleration voltage of 700 V.

Polycrystalline Silver

This paper attempts to identify key factor(s) for highly reflective silver (Ag) coatings. Investigation was made over the crystal orientation and surface roughness, using several types of surfaces, including electroplated Ag polycrystal films, physical vapour deposited polycrystal Ag films, and single crystal Ag foils with different crystal orientations. In each type of the surfaces, surface roughness was varied so that, for different combinations of crystal orientation, roughness would elucidate the key factors towards highly reflective Ag coatings. It is found that surface roughness plays a critical role in determining the reflectance, while the crystal orientation has negligible effect. The mean reflectance and one-way ANOVA analysis indicate that the single crystal Ag foils with three orientations performed statistically the same in the same roughness group at significance levelα= 0.05. Moreover, correlation between the surface reflectance and surface roughness has been proposed for the benefit of coating design. Refection data obtained from the polycrystalline silver samples are used to verify the accuracy of the proposed correlations. It was observed that the development surface area ratio,Sdr, is a better roughness indicator in predicting the reflectance of polycrystalline silver films than the arithmetic average roughness,Ra.
