ABSTRACTWe report on the growth of Ba(Ti1-xZrx)O3 thin films on Pt(111) / TiO2 / SiO2 / Si substrates by means of metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) using liquid precursors. The MOCVD system consists of an AIXTRON AIX-200 horizontal reactor with a TriJet® vaporizer. In the multi-source injection system the different single element precursor solutions were introduced separately in a pulse mode. The focus of our investigations lies on the correlation between processing conditions, growth rate, and film properties, namely stoichiometry, crystal structure, and surface morphology. Dense, polycrystalline Ba(Ti0.63Zr0.37)O3 films were successfully grown on platinum coated silicon substrates at temperatures around 630°C.

ABSTRACTRu thin films were deposited on SiO2/Si and (Ba,Sr)TiO3 [BST]/Pt/TiO2/SiO2/Si substrates using Ru(C2H5C5H4)2 [Ru(EtCp)2] by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). To determine the effects of the solvent, C4H8O [tetrahydrofuran: THF], it was injected into the reaction chamber by the Direct Liquid Injection (DLI) system while Ru(EtCp)2 was input through the bubbler system. Also, Ru thin films were deposited using a liquid source, Ru(EtCp)2 dissolved in THF, delivered by the DLI system. The surface of the Ru thin films deposited on the BST substrate using only Ru(EtCp)2 through the bubbler system was very rough and milky, but the addition of THF made the surface of the films smooth and clean. In addition, Ru films deposited at 325°C using Ru(EtCp)2 dissolved in THF through the DLI system have a dense and smooth microstructure with resistivity as low as 15µωcm.

The epitaxy of III-V semiconductors on silicon substrates remains challenging because of lattice parameter and material polarity differences. In this work, we report on the Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition (MOCVD) and characterization of InAs/GaAs Quantum Dots (QDs) epitaxially grown on quasi-nominal 300 mm Ge/Si(001) and GaAs(001) substrates. QD properties were studied by Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and Photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. A wafer level µPL mapping of the entire 300 mm Ge/Si substrate shows the homogeneity of the three-stacked InAs QDs emitting at 1.30 ± 0.04 µm at room temperature. The correlation between PL spectroscopy and numerical modeling revealed, in accordance with transmission electron microscopy images, that buried QDs had a truncated pyramidal shape with base sides and heights around 29 and 4 nm, respectively. InAs QDs on Ge/Si substrate had the same shape as QDs on GaAs substrates, with a slightly increased size and reduced luminescence intensity. Our results suggest that 1.3 μm emitting InAs QDs quantum dots can be successfully grown on CMOS compatible Ge/Si substrates.

AbstractSingle-phase polycrystalline PbZrO3 (PZ) thin films, 3000-6000 A thick, have been grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) on (111)Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates at ≍525°C. X-ray diffraction analysis indicated that the PZ films grown on (111)Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si (Pt/Tgi/Si) showed preferred pseudocubic (110) orientation. In contrast, PZ films grown on 150 A thick PbTiO3 (PT) template layers exhibited a pseudocubic (100) preferred orientation, and PZ films deposited on TiO2 template layers consisted of randomly oriented grains. The PZ films grown on Pt/Ti/Si with or without templates exhibited dielectric constants of 120-200 and loss tangents of 0.01-0.0. The PZ films with (110) orientation exhibited an electric-field-inducedtransformation from the antiferroelectric phase to the ferroelectric phase with a polarization of ≍34 µC/cm2, and the energy that was stored during switching was 7.1 J/cm3. The field needed to excite the ferroelectric state and that needed to revert to the antiferroelectric state were 50 and 250 kV/cm, respectively. Relationships between the MOCVD processing and the film microstructure and properties are discussed.

AbstractHighly (100) textured pseudo-cubic Pb(ScTa)1−xTixO3 (x=0-0.3) (PSTT) thin films were grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) on LaNiO3 (LNO) electrode buffered Si substrates at 650 °C. The microstructure and chemical uniformity were studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and nanoprobe X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The temperature dependence of dielectric properties and P-E behavior were measured. A shift of Curie temperature of these PST-based thin films due to Ti addition was demonstrated, Furthermore, the pyroelectric properties of these thin films were estimated.

Gallium Phosphide (GaP) nanostructures were grown on p-Si substrates by Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition (MOCVD) to study the structure of low dimensional IIIV semiconductor on Si substrates. It is found that at a temperature of 540 °C, nanostructures with diameter 4080 nm and height 515 nm were obtained. The density of the nanostructures was found to be 1014 m-2. The UV-Vis-NIR spectra showed a blue shift of band gap. Photoluminescence measurements also confirmed the band gap enhancement.
