In this paper, the effect of post annealing temperature for 5% Cerium doped ZnO thin films have been investigated. Films have been deposited on to the glass substrate using spin coating method. The structural and optical properties of the films were characterized using X-ray diffractometer and UV-spectrophotometer. Transmission of the films was found to be increase with increasing post annealing temperature. Average transmission of all the films was found to be more than 90%. Optical band gap show a minor variation with post annealing temperature. Nanostructures of cerium doped ZnO have been confirmed through AFM.

ZnO Nanostructures have been successfully deposited on of Porous silicon (PSi) via wet colloid chemical approach. PSi was prepared by electrochemical etching method. ZnO/PSi thin films were annealed in different temperature in the range of 300 °C to 700 °C. Surface morphology studies were conducted using field emission scanning microscopy (FESEM). Flower-like structures of ZnO were clearly seen at annealing temperature of 500 °C. The X-ray diffraction spectra (XRD) have been used to investigate the structural properties. There are three dominant peaks referred to plane (100), (002) and (101) indicates that ZnO has a polycrystalline hexagonal wurtzite structures. Plane (002) shows the highest intensities at annealing temperature of 500 °C. Based on plane (002) analysis, the sizes were in range of 30.78 nm to 55.18. In addition, it was found that the texture coefficient of plane (002) is stable compared to plane (100) and (101).

AbstractThe annealing steps have been shown to be a crucial determinant of the quality of Tl‐based superconducting films. In this study, we discuss the formation of the superconducting Tl2Ba2CaCu2O8 and Tl2Ba2Ca2Cu3O10 phases with varied post‐annealing temperature and fixed annealing time. A x‐ray, electron micro‐probe, and scanning electron microscopy were carried out to evaluate the structure of superconducting phases formed for each annealing condition. For films deposited on SrTiO3 substrates and heat‐treated at 870°C for 15 min, the lower Tc phase Tl2Ba2CaCu2O8 becomes a major phase. The films consist of nearly pure Tl2Ba2Ca2Cu3O10 phase with Tc (R=0) in the range of 100K to 118K and c‐axis perpendicular to the film plane were obtained after annealing 880‐890°C for 15 min. These films were epitaxy growth on SrTi03 substrates.

Zinc oxide (ZnO) colloid has drawn significant attention recently due to its wide range of potential applications such as photonic crystals, solar cells, sensors, and other optical devices. In this work, low cost sol-gel spin coating technique was employed to synthesis ZnO colloid. The influences of stirring speed and post annealing temperature on the properties of ZnO colloid was investigated. The structural and optical properties of ZnO colloid was characterized using field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometer, respectively. Subsequently, Tauc method was used to estimate the optical band gap of the ZnO colloid based on the optical transmittance data. The effects of the stirring speed and post annealing temperature on the structural and optical properties of ZnO colloid are revealed and discussed in this paper. It was found that ZnO colloid prepared by the stirring speed of 500rpm and 400°C post annealing temperature demonstrates the best dispersity quality of colloid system.

The composition of Mn 0.05 Si 0.95 polycrystalline films on (001) Si substrate are prepared by vacuum deposition and post-crystallization processes. X-ray diffraction studies indicate that there are two phases coexist in the film: tetragonal, Mn 4 Si 7 and diamond-like Si (Mn) . The content of Si(Mn) phase increases with increasing the post-annealing temperature. Temperature dependence of the magnetization shows that there are two ferromagnetic phases with Curie temperature of around 50 K and near room temperature, which is confirmed by x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD).
