The energy stability and density of states of a single Mn atom and two Mn atoms at various doped configurations and different magnetic coupling state were calculated. Different doping configurations have different degrees of p-d hybridization, and because Mn atoms are located in different crystal-field environment, the 3d projected densities of states peak splitting of different Mn doping configurations are quite different. In the two Mn atoms doped, the calculated ground states of three kinds of stable configurations are anti-ferromagnetic state. We analyzed the 3d density of states diagram of three kinds of energy stability configurations with the two Mn atoms in different magnetic coupling state. When the two Mn atoms are ferromagnetic coupling, due to d-d electron interactions, density of states of anti-bonding state have significant broadening peaks. As the concentration of Mn atoms increases, there is a tendency for Mn atoms to form nearest neighbors and cluster around S. For such these configurations, the antiferromagnetic coupling between Mn atoms is energetically more favorable.展开更多

By adjusting the sputtering thickness ratio of surface CuGa (20%Ga) and bottom CuGa (20%Ga) alloy layers in metal precursor, different CIGS thin films were fabricated. Through X-ray diffraction spectra, Raman spectra, local energy dispersive spectrometer, planar- and cross- sectional views of scanning electron microscopy measurements, it revealed that the CIGS thin films from selenization of metal precursor with CuGa:In:CuGa thickness ratio of 7:20:3 (sample-2-se) was of chalcopyrite structure with the preferred (112) orientation, and the grains sizes ranged from 0.5 μm to 2 μm, and sample-2-se had no binary compound phase of In-Se and order defect compound phase. Consequently, the results of illuminated current- voltage curve and quantum efficiency measurements showed that the CIGS film device made from sample-2-se had relative higher photo-electric conversion efficiency (3.59%) and good spectrum response.展开更多

The triple post-annealing process comprises annealing twice in argon and once in oxygen at different temperatures. In the first low-temperature annealing phase in argon, T12Ba2CaCu2O8 (T1-2212) is obtained to effectively minimize evaporation in the next step. With the increase of temperature in the second annealing stage in argon, the previously prepared T1-2212 inter-phase is converted into T1-2223 phase. An additional annealing in oxygen is also adopted to improve the properties of T1-2223 films, each containing an optimal oxygen content value. The results of X-ray diffraction (XRD) θ-2θ scans, 09 scans and rotational φ scans show that each of the T1-2223 films has a high phase purity and an epitaxial structure. Smooth films are observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The critical temperatures Tc of the films are measured to be about 120 K and the critical current densities Jc can reach 4.0 MA/cm2 at 77 K at self field.展开更多

The mechanism of the effect of rapid thermal annealing on the Sn surface segregation of Ge1-xSnx films is investigated by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The x-ray diffraction (XRD) is also performed to determine the crystallinities of the Ge1-xSnx films. The experimental results indicate that root mean square (RMS) values of the annealed samples are comparatively small and have no noticeable changes for the as-grown sample when annealing temperature is below 400℃. The diameter of the Sn three-dimensional (3D) island becomes larger than that of an as-grown sample when the annealing temperature is 700℃. In addition, the Sn surface composition decreases when annealing temperature ranges from 400℃ to 700℃. However, Sn bulk compositions in samples A and B are kept almost unchanged when the annealing temperature is below 600℃. The present investigation demonstrates that the crystallinity of Ge1-xSnx/Si (111) has no obvious advantage over that of Ge1-xSnx/Si (100) and the selection of Si (111) substrate is an effective method to improve the surface morphologies of Ge1-xSnx films. We also find that more severe Sn surface segregation occurs in the Ge1-xSnx/Si (111) sample during annealing than in the Ge1-xSnx/Si (100) sample.展开更多

With the decrease of the average ions radius 〈rA〉, the structure of Ln2/3Pb1/3MnO3 (Ln=La, Pr, Nd) targets transit from the rhombohedral phase to the orthorhombic phase, and the Curie temperature reduces rapidly with the decrease of 〈rA〉. The electrical properties show that films are the metallic state which can be fitted to the formula: ρ(T)=ρ0 + ρ1T^2 + ρ2T^4.5 at low temperatures. The temperature range of the ferromagnetic metallic state becomes narrow with the decrease of 〈rA〉. The phenomenon can be explained by the lattice effect.展开更多

The shift of the dominant A1 mode, unlike the lattice constants, does not follow the linear Vegard law with increasing Ga content x, whereas exhibits approximately polynomial change from 174 cm^-1 for CuInSe2 to 185 cm^-1 for CuGaSe2. Such behaviour should be indicative of presence of the asymmetric distribution of Ga and In on a microscopic scale in the films, due to Ga addition. The changes in the tetragonal distortion η lead to a significant variation in the anion displacement parameter U, which should be responsible for the evolution of bond parameters and resultant Raman bands with x.展开更多

The XRD analysis, optical transmittance and XPS measurements revealed that the Co2+ substituted Zn2+ ions were incorporated into the lattice of ZnO in Zn1-xCoxO thin films. The electrical properties measurements revealed that the Co concentration had a non- monotonic influence on the electrical properties of the Zn1-xCoxO thin films due to the defects resulted from imperfections induced by Co substitution. The resistivity remarkably increased and the carrier concentration remarkably decreased in Zn1-x CoxO thin films after oxygen annealing at 600 ℃ under 15 Pa O2 pressure for 60 mins. Room-temperature ferromagnetic was observed and the ferromagnetic Co amount was smaller than the nominal Co concentration for Zn1-xCoxO samples before oxygen annealing. After oxygen annealing, the Zn1-x CoxO thin films exhibited paramagnetic behavior. It is suggested that the room-temperature ferromagnetic ofZn1-x CoxO thin films may attribute to defects or carriers induced mechanism.展开更多

The atomic ratio x can be controlled by the oxygen flow rate during Cux(Cu2O)1-x deposition. Room-temperature ferromagnetism(FM) is found in all of the samples. The saturated magnetization increases at first and then decreases with the decrease of x. The photoluminescence spectra show that the magnetization is closely correlated with the Cu vacancies in the Cux(Cu2O)1-x granular films. Fundamentally, the FM could be understood by the Stoner model based on the charge transfer mechanism. These results may provide solid evidence and physical insights on the origin of FM in the Cu2O-based oxides diluted magnetic semiconductors, especially for systems without intentional magnetic atom doping.展开更多

The influence of Mn content on the optical properties was studied by spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) in the UV–Vis–NIR region. By fitting the measured ellipsometric parameter (Ψ and Δ) with a four-phase model (air/BMT+voids/BMT/Si(111)), the key optical constants of the thin films have been obtained. It was found that the refractive index n and the extinction coefficient k increase with increasing Mn content due to the increase in the packing density. Furthermore, a strong dependence of the optical band gap Eg on Mn/Ti ratios in the deposited films was observed, and it was inferred that the energy level of conduction bands decreases with increasing Mn content.展开更多

The effects of Mg doping concentration on the microstructure, switching behavior and properties of SrTi1-yMgyO3 films were investigated. All SrTi1-yMgyO3 films are polycrystalline, but the grain becomes coarser, and the number of holes is reduced when the Mg doping content increases from 0.04 to 0.16. SrTi1-yMgyO3 films with different Mg doping concentrations all show bipolar resistive switching behaviors but display some differences in switching properties. When y=0.08, the SrTi1-yMgyO3 films show the largest RHRS/RLRS of 105 and better fatigue endurance after 103 cycles. When y≥0.08, the distribution of Vset and Vreset is narrow, indicating good stability of writing and erasing data for a resistive random access memory. At high-resistance state, the dominant conduction mechanism of SrTi1-yMgyO3 films is the Schottky emission mechanism. However, at low-resistance state, the dominant conduction mechanisms are the filamentary conduction and changes to space charge limited current when y=0.16.展开更多

文摘We investigate the electronic and magnetic properties of the diluted magnetic semiconductors Zn1-xMnxS(001) thin films with different Mn doping concentrations using the total energy density functional theory. The energy stability and density of states of a single Mn atom and two Mn atoms at various doped configurations and different magnetic coupling state were calculated. Different doping configurations have different degrees of p-d hybridization, and because Mn atoms are located in different crystal-field environment, the 3d projected densities of states peak splitting of different Mn doping configurations are quite different. In the two Mn atoms doped, the calculated ground states of three kinds of stable configurations are anti-ferromagnetic state. We analyzed the 3d density of states diagram of three kinds of energy stability configurations with the two Mn atoms in different magnetic coupling state. When the two Mn atoms are ferromagnetic coupling, due to d-d electron interactions, density of states of anti-bonding state have significant broadening peaks. As the concentration of Mn atoms increases, there is a tendency for Mn atoms to form nearest neighbors and cluster around S. For such these configurations, the antiferromagnetic coupling between Mn atoms is energetically more favorable.
文摘CUIn1-xGaxSe2 (CIGS) films were prepared by a two-stage method, in which Cu-In-Ga metallic precursors were firstly deposited on unheated Mo-coated soda lime glass substrates by direct current sputtering CuGa (20%Ga) and radio frequency sputtering In targets in an Ar atmosphere, followed by selenization at 520 ℃ for 40 min in Se vapor. By adjusting the sputtering thickness ratio of surface CuGa (20%Ga) and bottom CuGa (20%Ga) alloy layers in metal precursor, different CIGS thin films were fabricated. Through X-ray diffraction spectra, Raman spectra, local energy dispersive spectrometer, planar- and cross- sectional views of scanning electron microscopy measurements, it revealed that the CIGS thin films from selenization of metal precursor with CuGa:In:CuGa thickness ratio of 7:20:3 (sample-2-se) was of chalcopyrite structure with the preferred (112) orientation, and the grains sizes ranged from 0.5 μm to 2 μm, and sample-2-se had no binary compound phase of In-Se and order defect compound phase. Consequently, the results of illuminated current- voltage curve and quantum efficiency measurements showed that the CIGS film device made from sample-2-se had relative higher photo-electric conversion efficiency (3.59%) and good spectrum response.

文摘Germanium-tin films with rather high Sn content (28.04% and 29.61%) are deposited directly on Si (100) and Si (111) substrates by magnetron sputtering. The mechanism of the effect of rapid thermal annealing on the Sn surface segregation of Ge1-xSnx films is investigated by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The x-ray diffraction (XRD) is also performed to determine the crystallinities of the Ge1-xSnx films. The experimental results indicate that root mean square (RMS) values of the annealed samples are comparatively small and have no noticeable changes for the as-grown sample when annealing temperature is below 400℃. The diameter of the Sn three-dimensional (3D) island becomes larger than that of an as-grown sample when the annealing temperature is 700℃. In addition, the Sn surface composition decreases when annealing temperature ranges from 400℃ to 700℃. However, Sn bulk compositions in samples A and B are kept almost unchanged when the annealing temperature is below 600℃. The present investigation demonstrates that the crystallinity of Ge1-xSnx/Si (111) has no obvious advantage over that of Ge1-xSnx/Si (100) and the selection of Si (111) substrate is an effective method to improve the surface morphologies of Ge1-xSnx films. We also find that more severe Sn surface segregation occurs in the Ge1-xSnx/Si (111) sample during annealing than in the Ge1-xSnx/Si (100) sample.

文摘Epitaxial (0001)-oriented Zn1-xCoxO (x= 0.01, 0.05 and 0.1) thin films were grown on c-sapphire substrates by pulsed laser deposition. The XRD analysis, optical transmittance and XPS measurements revealed that the Co2+ substituted Zn2+ ions were incorporated into the lattice of ZnO in Zn1-xCoxO thin films. The electrical properties measurements revealed that the Co concentration had a non- monotonic influence on the electrical properties of the Zn1-xCoxO thin films due to the defects resulted from imperfections induced by Co substitution. The resistivity remarkably increased and the carrier concentration remarkably decreased in Zn1-x CoxO thin films after oxygen annealing at 600 ℃ under 15 Pa O2 pressure for 60 mins. Room-temperature ferromagnetic was observed and the ferromagnetic Co amount was smaller than the nominal Co concentration for Zn1-xCoxO samples before oxygen annealing. After oxygen annealing, the Zn1-x CoxO thin films exhibited paramagnetic behavior. It is suggested that the room-temperature ferromagnetic ofZn1-x CoxO thin films may attribute to defects or carriers induced mechanism.

文摘A star-shaped compound of perfluoro-1-octanesulfonated fullerene was synthesized. The measurement of the friction for its spin-coating film by friction force microscopy (FFM) reveals that the films possess lower friction force compared to that of the star-shaped C-60-polystyrene films.

文摘LaSrMnOfilms are deposited on(001) silicon substrates,in which the silicon surfaces have artificially been treated into the scallops-like,pyramid-like,and smooth polishing structure,by pulsed laser deposition.The magnetoresistances of the films on etched substrates under low applied field are very sensitive to the applied field,and much larger(14.3% for acid-etched,and 42.9% for alkali-etched) than that on the polished Si at 5 K.Zero-field-cooled and field-cooled magnetization behaviors are measured and analyzed.Remarkable upturn behaviors in temperature-dependent resistivity for all samples are observed at low temperature,which follows the Efros-Shkloskii variable range hopping law and the Arrhenius law.We believe that the rough surface may be useful in device design.

文摘Cux(Cu2O)1-x(0.09 x 1.00) granular films with thickness about 280 nm have been fabricated by direct current reactive magnetron sputtering. The atomic ratio x can be controlled by the oxygen flow rate during Cux(Cu2O)1-x deposition. Room-temperature ferromagnetism(FM) is found in all of the samples. The saturated magnetization increases at first and then decreases with the decrease of x. The photoluminescence spectra show that the magnetization is closely correlated with the Cu vacancies in the Cux(Cu2O)1-x granular films. Fundamentally, the FM could be understood by the Stoner model based on the charge transfer mechanism. These results may provide solid evidence and physical insights on the origin of FM in the Cu2O-based oxides diluted magnetic semiconductors, especially for systems without intentional magnetic atom doping.

文摘Stoichiometric Ba(MnxTi(1-x)O3) (BMT) thin films with various values of x were deposited on Si(111) substrates by the sol-gel technique. The influence of Mn content on the optical properties was studied by spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) in the UV–Vis–NIR region. By fitting the measured ellipsometric parameter (Ψ and Δ) with a four-phase model (air/BMT+voids/BMT/Si(111)), the key optical constants of the thin films have been obtained. It was found that the refractive index n and the extinction coefficient k increase with increasing Mn content due to the increase in the packing density. Furthermore, a strong dependence of the optical band gap Eg on Mn/Ti ratios in the deposited films was observed, and it was inferred that the energy level of conduction bands decreases with increasing Mn content.
文摘Y_(1-x)Ho_xBa_2Cu_3O_(7-δ)(0<x<1) sinsle crystal thin films oriented with the caxis perpendicular to the sur-face were grown by DC magnetron sputtering technique. Target was pieced together with half of YBa_2Cu_3O_(7-δ)(YBCO) and half of HoBa_2Cu_3O_(7-δ)(HBCO) superconducting materials. As the distance between HBCO targetmaterial and substrate is varied , the Ho content in material is changed respectively. When the content of Ho is0. 7 (atom ratio) , the T_c>83K.

文摘SrTi1-yMgyO3 films were synthesized through sol-gel method on p^+-Si substrates. The effects of Mg doping concentration on the microstructure, switching behavior and properties of SrTi1-yMgyO3 films were investigated. All SrTi1-yMgyO3 films are polycrystalline, but the grain becomes coarser, and the number of holes is reduced when the Mg doping content increases from 0.04 to 0.16. SrTi1-yMgyO3 films with different Mg doping concentrations all show bipolar resistive switching behaviors but display some differences in switching properties. When y=0.08, the SrTi1-yMgyO3 films show the largest RHRS/RLRS of 105 and better fatigue endurance after 103 cycles. When y≥0.08, the distribution of Vset and Vreset is narrow, indicating good stability of writing and erasing data for a resistive random access memory. At high-resistance state, the dominant conduction mechanism of SrTi1-yMgyO3 films is the Schottky emission mechanism. However, at low-resistance state, the dominant conduction mechanisms are the filamentary conduction and changes to space charge limited current when y=0.16.
