AbstractChemical vapor deposition from (MeCp)2Nb(allyl) at atmospheric pressure yields niobium carbide films at temperatures as low as 300°C. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) studies indicate that the bulk films contain a carbide phase and a nearly stoichiometric ratio of niobium to carbon. The morphology of the films has been examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

AbstractCopper oxide films were prepared by organometallic chemical vapor deposition of copper acetylacetonate in an oxygen-rich environment. The films were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Auger electron spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. At 360 °C, Cu2O films were formed for an oxygen pressure of 150 torr and a copper acetylacetonate vapor pressure of 0.2 torr). The Cu2O film was polycrystalline, but the orientation was primarily [111]. Differential scanning calorimetry indicated that O2 assists decomposition of the organometallic precursor during pyrolysis.

Films containing the metals copper, yttrium, calcium, strontium, barium, and bismuth were grown by organometallic chemical vapor deposition (OMCVD). Depositions were carried out at atmospheric pressure in an oxygen-rich environment using metal beta-diketonates and triphenylbismuth. The films were characterized by Auger electron spectroscopy, Nomarski and scanning electron microscopy, and x-ray diffraction. The results show that films containing yttrium consisted of Y2O3 with a small amount of carbidic carbon, those with copper and bismuth were mixtures of oxides with no detectable carbon, and those with calcium, strontium, and barium contained carbonates. Use of a partially fluorinated barium beta-diketonate gave films of BaF2 with small amounts of BaCO3.

ABSTRACTHigh quality GaAs/SiO2 MIS( Metal Insulator Semiconductor ) diodes were fabricated using (NH4)2S treatment and photo-assisted CVD( Chemical Vapor Deposition ). The density of states at the GaAs and SiO2 interface is the order of 1011 cm-2eV-1 throughout the forbidden energy range, which is smaller by the order of two than that of the MIS devices made by the conventional CVD process. The mechanism attributable to the interface improvement was investigated through XPS( X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy ) analyses.

<p class="1Body">MgO films were epitaxially grown on single crystal MgO substrates by atmospheric-pressure chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Reciprocal lattice mappings and X-ray reflection pole figures were used to evaluate the crystal quality of the synthesized films and their epitaxial relation to their respective substrates. The X-ray diffraction profiles indicated that the substrates were oriented out-of-plane during MgO crystal growth. Subsequent pole figure measurements showed how all the MgO films retained the substrate in-plane orientations by expressing the same pole arrangements. The reciprocal lattice mappings indicated that the whisker film showed a relatively strong streak while the continuous film showed a weak one. Hence, highly crystalline epitaxial MgO thin films were synthesized on single crystal MgO substrates by atmospheric-pressure CVD.</p>

AbstractSpire Corporation has deposited strontium-barium-niobate by chemical vapor deposition at atmospheric pressure using Ba(TMHD), Sr(TMHD), and Nb ethoxide. Deposition temperature as 550°C in an isothermal furnace. Films were deposited upon silicon (precoated with silica), platinum, sapphire, and quartz. Materials were characterized by RBS, X-ray diffraction, EDS, electron, and optical microscopy. Electrical and optical properties were measured at Boston University.

ABSTRACTThis paper reports a procedure for low-temperature nitridation of silicon dioxide (SiO2) surfaces using species produced by catalytic decomposition of NH3 on heated tungsten in catalytic chemical vapor deposition (Cat-CVD) system. The surface of SiO2/Si(100) was nitrided at temperatures as low as 200°C. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements revealed that incorporated N atoms are bound to Si atoms and O atoms and located top-surface of SiO2.

In the paper, zinc oxide (ZnO) thin films are deposited by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) at different substrate temperatures. The ZnO films are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The analysis results indicate that highly crystalline films with high orientation can be obtained at a substrate temperature of 300 oC with 50 ml/min flow rate from Diethylzinc (DEZ). Furthermore, the investigation of optical property shows that ZnO films are transparent, and the peak transmittance in the visible region is as high as 85%.
