The effect of growth parameters on CrN thin films grown by molecular beam epitaxy
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we report on the controlling of the effect of growth parameters such as substrate temperature and the ratio of Cr and N atoms on phase formation, surface morphology and crystallization of CrN(001) thin films grown by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy on the MgO(001) substrate. The reflected high energy electron diffraction, atomic force microscopy, X-ray diffraction and scanning tunneling microscopy are used to characterize the thin films grown under various conditions. High-quality CrN(001) thin films are achieved at a substrate temperature 430 C with a low Cr deposition rate.

Study of the effect of plasma power on ZnO thin films growth using electron cyclotron resonance plasma-assisted molecular-beam epitaxy
ZnO thin films were grown on r-plane sapphire substrates using electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) plasma-assistedmolecular-beam epitaxy. The effect of the oxygen ECR plasma power on the growth rate, structural, electrical, and optical properties of the ZnO thin films were studied. It was found that larger ECR power leads to higher growth rate, better crystallinity, lower electron carrier concen...

A growthwindow for theMn effusion cell temperature (TMn) is demonstrated for epitaxialMn-doped ZnO (MnZnO) thin films grown on sapphire substrates using molecular-beam epitaxy. Within the growth window, the films are ferromagnetic with the largest saturated magnetization occurring at TMn1⁄4700 1C. The Curie temperature of these MnZnO diluted magnetic semiconductor thin films is above roomtemper...

AlN thin films were grown on HF-etched Si~111! substrates at 400– 600 °C by plasma source molecular beam epitaxy. Reflection high energy electron diffraction and transmission electron microscopy studies show that AlN films grown at 400 °C form an initial amorphous region at the interface, followed by c-axis oriented columnar grains with slightly different tilts and twists. AlN films grown at 60...
