The maxima of peaks in plots dR/dλ and dT/dλ versus wavelength of films exhibit optical gaps at about 3.12-3.25 eV.The values of the fundamental indirect band gap obtained from the Tauc model are at about 3.14-3.2 eV. It can be seen that films annealed at 600°C have the minimum indirect optical band gap at about 3.15 eV. The films annealed at 600°C have Urbach's energy minimum of 1.38 eV and hence have minimum disorder. The dispersion energy d of films annealed at 500°C has the minimum value of 43 eV.展开更多

The films were grown on quartz substrates by radio-frequency(RF)magnetron co-sputtering at room temperature with a deposition time of 600 s. The optical absorption peaks due to the SPR of Ni particle are observed in the wavelength range of 300-330 nm. With annealing temperature increasing up to 500 ℃ due to the increase in Ni particle size, the intensity of the SPR peaks increases, but weakens with annealing temperature increasing over 500 ℃. The Ni nanoparticle size, the dielectric function of carbon matrix(ε_m) and the plasma frequency of the free electrons(ω_p) at500 ℃have the maximum values of 21.63 nm, 0.471 and5.26 9 10^(15)s^(-1), respectively. The absorption peak shows a redshift trend up to 500 ℃and then turn to blueshift with annealing temperature increasing over 500 ℃ These observations are in a good agreement with the electrical measurements in temperature range of 15-520 K and the Maxwell-Garnett(M-G) effective medium theory(EMT).展开更多

The films were grown by radio frequency magnetron sputtering on glass substrates at room temperature. The electrical conductivity of the films was investigated in the temperature range of 15-500 K. The conductivity data in the temperature range of 400-500 K show the extended state conduction mecha- nism, while the multiphonon hopping (MPH) conduction is found to dominate the electrical transport in the tempera- ture range of 150-300 K. The films deposited at 180 s have the maximum conductivity. The conductivity at T 〈 60 K could be described in terms of variable range hopping (VRH) conduction. The localized state density around Fermi level (N(EF)) at low temperature for the films deposited at 180 s has the minimum value of about 4.02 × 10^21 cm^-3.eV^-1. The average hopping distance (Rhop) for the films deposited at 180 s has the maximum value of about 3.51 × 10^-7 cm.展开更多
