Meanwhile,the RMS(1.1nm) varies a little and the defect density varies little.According to the results,the method of combining an LT-Si layer with ion implantation can prepare high-quality strained-Si material with a high relaxation degree and ultra-thin SiGe virtual substrate to meet the requirements of device applications.展开更多

This sensor under ultraviolet(UV) light emitting diode(LED) illumination exhibits a higher response to formaldehyde than that without UV illumination at low temperature. The sensitivities of the sensor under steady working condition were calculated for different gas concentrations. The sensitivity to formaldehyde of 7.14 mg/m^3 is about 15.91 under UV illumination with response time of 580 s and recovery time of 500 s. The device was fabricated through micro-electro-mechanical system(MEMS) processing technology. First, plasma immersion ion implantation(PIII) was adopted to form black polysilicon, then a nanoscale TiO_2 membrane with thickness of 53 nm was deposited by DC reactive magnetron sputtering to obtain the sensing layer. By such fabrication approaches, the nanoscale polysilicon presents continuous rough surface with thickness of 50 nm, which could improve the porosity of the sensing membrane. The fabrication process can be mass-produced for the MEMS process compatibility.展开更多
