Book Crystalline Rare Earth doped Sesquioxide PLD Films on alpha Aluminia

Download or read book Crystalline Rare Earth doped Sesquioxide PLD Films on alpha Aluminia written by and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on 2004-07-28 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of integrated optical devices demands the fabrication of high-quality optically active thin films. This work focuses on thin sesquioxide films, which are promising because the sesquioxides are well-known hosts for rare-earth-ions, leading to luminescent materials and solid-state lasers with superior mechanical and thermal properties (e. g. low phonon energies, large thermal conductivity).Optical quality crystalline thin films of rare-earth-doped sesquioxides (yttria, lutetia, and scandia) have been grown by the pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique on single-crystal (0001) a-alumina substrates. Alumina substrates offer a lattice constant that matches that of cubic Y2O3 in the á111ñ direction very well. Using Lu2O3 and Sc2O3, the mismatch of 4.8% related to Y2O3 on alumina substrates can be considerably reduced leading to the production of films with less dislocations.The crystal structure of these films (thicknesses from 1 nm to 500 nm) was determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and surface X-ray diffraction (SXRD) analysis. These measurements show that the films were textured along the á111ñ direction, however with a small polycrystalline component, which is negligible in thick films. Using Rutherford backscattering analysis (RBS), the correct stoichiometric composition of the films could be proved. At optimum growth conditions, epitaxial growth of Y2O3 along the á111ñ direction on the [0001] a-Al2O3 was experimentally verified by the observation of channelling in the RBS experiments.The surface morphology of the thin films has been studied using atomic force microscopy (AFM). While amorphous films have no defined surface structure, crystalline films show a triangular surface morphology, which is attributed to the á111ñ growth direction. The same structure is observed along the {111} cleavage of an yttria bulk crystal. Thin films with a mean thickness of 5 nm have no completely covered surface, but show island growth, where the shape of the single crystallites, having angles of 60° or 120° , indicates the á111ñ growth direction during the early stages of film growth.To study the optical properties of the rare-earth-doped films, spectroscopic measurements in the (vacuum-) ultraviolet and visible spectral-range have been carried out. The emission and excitation spectra of the Eu3+-doped films look similar to those of the corresponding crystalline bulk material down to a film thickness of 100 nm, i. e. the symmetry around the Eu3+-ions is preserved, whereas films with a thickness £ 20nm show a completely different emission behavior. This change can be explained by subplantation effects of high-energy plasma species hitting the substrate surface, leading to mixed compounds like Y3Al5O12. In addition, surface effects due to a large surface-to-volume ratio of the observed islands have a significant impact on the 'film' properties.For possible applications in integrated optics, waveguide experiments have been performed in the system Y2O3–Al2O3. Single-mode guiding of the fundamental mode was demonstrated in the 1 µm thick yttria layer.

Book Atomic Layer Epitaxy

Download or read book Atomic Layer Epitaxy written by T. Suntola and published by Springer. This book was released on 1989-10-31 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a detailed study of the Atomic Layer Epitaxy technique (ALE), its development, current and potential applications. The rapid development of coating technologies over the last 25 years has been instrumental in generating interest and expertise in thin films of materials, and indeed the market for thin film coatings is currently £3 billion with projected annual growth of 20 to 30% [1]. ALE is typical of thin-film processes in that problems in the processing or preparation of good quality epitaxial films have been overcome, resulting in better performance, novel applications of previously unsuitable materials, and the development of new devices. Many materials exhibit interesting and novel properties when prepared as thin films and doped. Vapour-deposited coatings and films are used extensively in the semiconductor and related industries for making single devices, integrated circuits, microwave hybrid integrated circuits, compact discs, solar reflective glazing, fibre optics, photo voltaic cells, sensors, displays, and many other products in general, everyday use. The ALE technique was developed by a research team led by Tuomo Suntola, working for Instrumentarium Oy in Finland. The key members of this team were lorma Antson, Arto Pakkala and Sven Lindfors. In 1977, the research team moved from Instrumentarium to Lohja Corporation, where they continued the development of ALE and were granted a patent in the same year. By 1980, the technique was sufficiently advanced that they were producing flat-screen electroluminescent displays based on a manganese-doped zinc sulphide layer.
