GaN films possessing hexagonal wurtzite structure were fabricated on Si(111) substrates with ZnO buffer layers through nitriding Ga2O3 films in the tube quartz furnace. ZnO buffer layers and Ga3O3 films were deposited on Si substrates in turn by using radio frequency magnetron sputtering system before the nitriding process. The structure and composition of GaN films were studied by X-ray diffraction, selected area electron diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer. The morphologies of GaN films were studied by scanning electron microscopy. The results show that ZnO buffer layer improves the crystalline quality and the surface morphology of the films relative to the films grown directly on silicon substrates. The measurement result of room-temperature photoluminescence spectrum indicates that the photoluminescence peaks locate at 365 nm and 422 nm.展开更多

The compositions of amorphous films were tailored in the light of the individual deposition rate of Co,Nb and Zr. The amorphous films with the anticipated composition were prepared by means of co-sputtering Co,Nb and Zr targets simultaneously. It is indicated that there is interaction among three targets during co-sputtering. The morphology and composition of the films were observed by SEM,AFM and EDS. The structure and magnetic property were measured by XRD and physical property measurement system(PPMS) . The coercivity changes with the composition,varying from 240 to 1 600 A/m. After vacuum isothermal annealing at temperatures of 475,500,525 and 550 ℃ for 15 and 30 min,respectively,it is found that high Nb content is beneficial to improving thermal stability of amorphous films.
