Effect of seed layers on the static and dynamic magnetic properties of CoIr films with negative effective magnetocrystalline anisotropy

The c-axis oriented hcp-Co_(81)Ir_(19)magnetic films were prepared on different seed layers(Ni,Cu,Ir,Pt,Au,and No seed).We systematically investigated the impact that surface-free energy and strain energy have on the orientation and defects and/or internal stress of the grains by increasing the lattice mismatch ratio.Moreover,the initial permeability and the natural resonance frequency were discussed in great detail using a comparison between calculated values and experimental values.We found that the almost unchanged 4πM_(s) andμ_(i) are not affected,while the changed H_(c),intrinsic K_(grain),and f_(r) are strongly dependent on the seed layer and seed layer material.Moreover,the extracted damping constant is sensitive to the defects and/or internal stress and orientation of the grains.Therefore,the soft magnetic properties and microwave properties are adjusted and optimized by seed layers with different materials.

Deposition of Cu seed layer film by supercritical fluid deposition for advanced interconnects

The deposition of a Cu seed layer film is investigated by supercritical fluid deposition （SCFD） using H2 as a reducing agent for Bis（2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5- heptanedionato） copper in supercritical CO2 （scCO2）. The effects of deposition temperature, precursor, and H2 concentration are investigated to optimize Cu deposition. Continuous metallic Cu films are deposited on Ru substrates at 190 ℃ when a 0.002 mol/L Cu precursor is introduced with 0.75 mol/L H2. A Cu precursor concentration higher than 0.002 mol/L is found to have negative effects on the surface qualities of Cu films. For a H2 concentration above 0.56 mol/L, the root-mean-square （RMS） roughness of a Cu film decreases as the H2 concentration increases. Finally, a 20-nm thick Cu film with a smooth surface, which is required as a seed layer in advanced interconnects, is successfully deposited at a high H2 concentration （0.75 tool/L）.

Effect of Seed Layer on the Orientation of Zinc Oxide Film on Silicon Substrate

The effect of seed layer on the orientation of ZnO film was investigated. Before the preparation of ZnO film using sol-gel method, seed layer of ZnO was prepared in a similar way using the precursor at a rather low concentration. Experiments show that the existence of seed layer can improve the orientation of the finally prepared ZnO film, while baking temperature, baking time and precursor concentration all have effects on the final results.

Effect of TiO_2 Seed Layer on 0.7Pb(Mg_(0.33)Nb_(0.67))O_3-0.3PbTiO_3 Thin Films Deposited by Radio Frequency Magnetron Sputtering

We have grown PbMg1/3Nb2/3O3-PbTiO3(PMN-PT) thin films by radio frequency(RF) sputtering deposition at 550 ℃-650 ℃ on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si and TiO2/Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates.The phase compositions and microstructure of thin films were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD) and scanning electric microstructure(SEM).The effect of the TiO2 seed layer on PMN-PT films was studied.

Optimization and Evaluation of Sputtering Barrier/Seed Layer in Through Silicon Via for 3-D Integration

The barrier/seed layer is a key issue in Through Silicon Via （TSV） technology for 3-D integration. Sputtering is an important deposition method for via metallization in semiconductor process. However, due to the limitation of sputtering and a ＂scallop＂ profile inside vias, poor step coverage of the barrier/seed layer always occurs in the via metallization process. In this paper, the effects of several sputter parameters （DC power, Ar pressure, deposition time, and substrate temperature） on thin film coverage for TSV applications are investigated. Robust TSVs with aspect ratio 5 ： 1 were obtained with optimized magnetron sputter parameters. In addition, the influences of different sputter parameters are compared and the conclusion could be used as a guideline to select appropriate parameter sets.

Effects of seed layer on the performance of microcrystalline silicon germanium solar cells

Using plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition（PECVD） at 13.56 MHz,a seed layer is fabricated at the initial growth stage of the hydrogenated microcrystalline silicon germanium(μc-Si1-xGex:H) i-layer.The effects of seeding processes on the growth ofμc-Si1-xGex:H i-layers and the performance ofμc-Si1-xGex:H p-i-n single junction solar cells are investigated.By applying this seeding method,theμc-Si1-xGex:H solar cell shows a significant improvement in short circuit current density(Jsc) and fill factor（FF） with an acceptable performance of blue response as aμc-Si:H solar cell even when the Ge content x increases up to 0.3.Finally,an improved efficiency of 7.05%is achieved for theμc-Si0.7Ge0.3:H solar cell.

Artificial synaptic and self-rectifying properties of crystalline(Na_(1-x)K_(x))NbO_(3)thin films grown on Sr_(2)Nb_(3)O_(10)nanosheet seed layers

Crystalline(Na_(1-x)K_(x))NbO_(3)(NKN)thin films were deposited on Sr_(2)Nb_(3)O_(10)/TiN/Si(S-TS)substrates at 370°C.Sr_(2)Nb_(3)O_(10)(SNO)nanosheets served as a template for the formation of crystalline NKN films at low temperatures.When the NKN film was deposited on one SNO monolayer,the NKN memristor exhibited normal bipolar switching characteristics,which could be attributed to the formation and destruction of oxygen vacancy filaments.Moreover,the NKN memristor with one SNO monolayer exhibited artificial synaptic properties.However,the NKN memristor deposited on two SNO monolayers exhibited self-rectifying bipolar switching properties,with the two SNO monolayers acting as tunneling barriers in the memristor.The conduction mechanism of the NKN memristor with two SNO monolayers in the highresistance state is attributed to Schottky emission,direct tunneling,and Fowler–Nordheim(FN)tunneling.The current conduction in this memristor in the low-resistance state was governed by direct tunneling and FN tunneling.Additionally,the NKN memristor with two SNO monolayers exhibited large ON/OFF and rectification ratios and artificial synaptic properties.Therefore,an NKN memristor with two SNO monolayers can be used for fabricating artificial synaptic devices with a cross-point array structure.

Steady-state solution growth of microcrystalline silicon on nanocrystalline seed layers on glass

The growth of polycrystalline silicon layers on glass from tin solutions at low temperatures is presented.This approach is based on the steady-state solution growth of Si crystallites on nanocrystalline seed layers, which are prepared in a preceding process step. Scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy investigations reveal details about the seed layer surfaces, which consist of small hillocks, as well as about Sn inclusions and gaps along the glass substrate after solution growth. The successful growth of continuous microcrystalline Si layers with grain sizes up to several ten micrometers shows the feasibility of the process and makes it interesting for photovoltaics.

Influence of TiO_2 seeding layers on phase composition of lead magnesium niobate-lead titanate thin films prepared by RF magnetron sputtering

The influence of amorphous TiO_2 seeding layers on the phase composition of lead magnesium niobate-lead titanate(0.7Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-0.3PbTiO3,PMN-PT) films deposited on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrate by RF magnetron sputtering was examined.The relation between seeding layer thickness and phase composition at different post annealing temperature was observed by XRD.The thickness of amorphous TiO2 seeding layer and post annealing temperature had remarkable effects on PMN-PT film phase composition.When amorphous seeding layer becomes thick,a new phase of Nb2O5 exists in the films.Only when the seeding layer thickness is suitable,the film with pure perovskite phase can be attained.

Fabrication of seeded substrates for layer transferrable silicon films

The layer transfer process is one of the most promising methods for low-cost and highly-efficient solar cells, in which transferrable mono-crystalline silicon thin wafers or films can be produced directly from gaseous feed-stocks. In this work, we show an approach to preparing seeded substrates for layer-transferrable silicon films. The commercial silicon wafers are used as mother substrates, on which periodically patterned silicon rod arrays are fabricated, and all of the surfaces of the wafers and rods are sheathed by thermal silicon oxide. Thermal evaporated aluminum film is used to fill the gaps between the rods and as the stiff mask, while polymethyl methacrylate （PMMA） and photoresist are used as the soft mask to seal the gap between the filled aluminum and the rods. Under the joint resist of the stiff and soft masks, the oxide on the rod head is selectively removed by wet etching and the seed site is formed on the rod head. The seeded substrate is obtained after the removal of the masks. This joint mask technique will promote the endeavor of the exploration of mechanically stable, unlimitedly reusable substrates for the kerfless technology.

基于两步刻蚀工艺的锥形TSV制备方法

以硅通孔(TSV)为核心的2.5D/3D封装技术可以实现芯片之间的高速、低功耗和高带宽的信号传输。常见的垂直TSV的制造工艺复杂,容易造成填充缺陷。锥形TSV的侧壁倾斜,开口较大,有利于膜层沉积和铜电镀填充,可降低工艺难度和提高填充质量。在相对易于实现的刻蚀条件下制备了锥形TSV,并通过增加第二步刻蚀来改善锥形TSV形貌。成功制备了直径为10~40μm、孔口为喇叭形的锥形TSV。通过溅射膜层和铜电镀填充,成功实现了直径为15μm、深度为60μm的锥形TSV的连续膜层沉积和完全填充,验证了两步刻蚀工艺的可行性和锥形TSV在提高膜层质量和填充效果方面的优势。为未来高密度封装领域提供了一种新的TSV制备工艺,在降低成本的同时提高了2.5D/3D封装技术的性能。

Seed Free Growth of Aligned ZnO Nanowire Arrays on AZO Substrate

In the absence of commonly used seed layer, we can still successfully synthesized aligned ZnO nanowire arrays by the hydrothermal method. By using aluminum-doped zinc oxide(AZO) glass as a substrate, high-density and vertically aligned ZnO nanowires were synthesized directly on the substrate in the absence of the ZnO seed layer. The current-voltage curve indicated that the sample grown on AZO glass substrate in the absence of seed layer possesses better conductivity than that synthesized on FTO glass substrate with ZnO seed layer. Thus, a simplified, seed-free and low-cost experimental protocol was reported here for large-scale production of high quality ZnO nanowire arrays with promoted conductivity.

Magnetic properties and structure of Ni_80Fe_20/Ni_48Fe_12Cr_40 bilayer films deposited on SiO_2/Si(100) by electron beam evaporation

Ni80Fe20/Ni48Fe12Cr40 bilayer films and Ni80Fe20 monolayer films were deposited at room temperature on SiO2/Si（100） substrates by electron beam evaporation. The influence of the thickness of the Ni48Fe12Cr40 underlayer on the structure, magnetization, and magnetoresistance of the Ni80Fe20/Ni48Fe12Cr40 bilayer film was investigated. The thickness of the Ni48Fe12Cr40 layer varied from about 1 nm to 18 nm while the Ni80Fe20 layer thickness was fixed at 45 nm. For the as-deposited bilayer films the introducing of the Ni48Fe12Cr40 underlayer promotes both the （111） texture and grain growth in the Ni80Fe20 layer. The Ni48Fe12Cr40 underlayer has no significant influence on the magnetic moment of the Ni80Fe20/Ni48Fe12Cr40 bilayer film. However, the coercivity of the bilayer film changes with the thickness of the Ni48Fe12Cr40 undedayer. The optimum thickness of the Ni48Fe12Cr40 underlayer for improving the anisotropic magnetoresistance effect of the Ni80Fe20/Ni48Fe12Cr40 bilayer film is about 5 nm. With a decrease in temperature from 300 K to 81 K, the anisotropic magnetoresistance ratio of the Ni80Fe20 （45 nm）/Ni48Fe12Cr40 （5 nm） bilayer film increases linearly from 2.1% to 4.8% compared with that of the Ni80Fe20 monolayer film from 1.7% to 4.0%.

水稻糊粉层蛋白酶体参与种子萌发的研究

种子萌发是植物进入营养生长阶段的关键性环节,在水稻(Oryza sativa L.)种子萌发过程中,糊粉层会合成并分泌一系列的酸性水解酶(如α-淀粉酶、蛋白酶)用于降解胚乳中的贮藏物质,为水稻幼苗生长提供营养。水稻种子贮藏蛋白的降解离不开蛋白酶体及蛋白酶的作用。为探究26S蛋白酶体、20S蛋白酶体及其亚基PBA1参与GA对萌发水稻种子糊粉层中贮藏蛋白的调节过程,本研究以水稻杂交种特优128为试验材料,通过采用酶联免疫吸附技术、实时荧光定量PCR技术等方法,检测26S蛋白酶体、20S蛋白酶体及PBA1的活性和OsPBA1转录水平,以及总蛋白含量的变化。结果表明:GA明显促进糊粉层细胞中贮藏蛋白的降解,加快水稻种子的萌发;而在GA合成受阻时,糊粉层细胞中贮藏蛋白的降解进程延缓,从而延迟水稻种子的萌发。正常培养条件下,水稻种子糊粉层中26S蛋白酶体活性和20S蛋白酶体活性的峰值分别出现在6 d和7 d,而OsPBA1表达水平及PBA1活性则在5 d和8 d均呈现峰值。进一步研究表明,GA可以诱导PBA1、20S蛋白酶体及26S蛋白酶体的活性,从而加快种子萌发的进程;而在26S蛋白酶体活性抑制剂MG132处理下,抑制了萌发水稻种子的生长,但提高了20S蛋白酶体和PBA1的活性。以上研究初步揭示了26S蛋白酶体在GA调节水稻种子糊粉层贮藏蛋白降解中的作用及其对种子萌发的影响。

环境湿度影响人工催化消减雨效果的数值模拟研究

利用耦合了碘化银催化过程的WRF(Weather Research and Forecast)模式,对2014年8月16日南京青奥会开幕式当天实施的人工催化作业开展数值模拟,评估催化效果并通过敏感性数值试验调查低空环境干层对催化效果的影响。结果表明,催化作业产生了减雨效果,低空干区的存在是影响催化效果的关键。当低空存在深厚的相对湿度很小的干层时,催化导致减雨效果;当增加低层的相对湿度即弱化低空干层,催化减雨效果减弱甚至出现增雨效果。催化增强了雪的形成过程但减弱了雪的增长过程尤其是凝华增长,导致雪粒子浓度增加但粒径减小,融化产生更多的小雨滴增强了蒸发过程,最终导致地面降水减少。
