Structural and optical properties of Cr doped ZnO crystalline thin films deposited by reactive electron beam evaporation technique

ZnO and Cr-doped ZnO thin films are grown on to glass substrates using reactive electron beam(e-beam) evaporation technique.Variation of structural,morphological,and optical properties with Cr doping is investigated.X-ray diffraction(XRD) studies show that the films are polycrystalline in nature with single phase.Energy dispersive spectroscopy(EDS) results demonstrate that Cr ions are substitutionally incorporated into ZnO.Atomic force microscopy(AFM) reveals that the films present a compact surface and root mean squared(RMS) roughness increased with Cr contents.The optical band gap energy Eg of the films has been determined using Transmission data by spectrophotometer and ellipsometry.The band gap energy found to be decreased with increasing Cr doping concentration.The optical constants(refractive index,extinction coefficient) are calculated using ellipsometry and found to increase with Cr doping concentration.     

R.F.溅射Ba0.5Sr0.5TiO3薄膜及其光学特性研究

用R．F．磁控溅射法在石英衬底上沉积Ba0.65Sr0.35TiO3薄膜,应用XRD与SEM表征了BST薄膜的晶化行为及其表面形貌．在550℃衬底温度下沉积的薄膜,其表面光滑、晶粒大小分布均匀．应用双光束分光光度计,在200～900nm的波长范围测量了薄膜的透射光谱,并根据“包络法”理论计算薄膜的折射指数．结果表明,随着辐射波长从650nm减小到480nm,薄膜的折射率从2．04增加到2．15;随着波长进一步降低,折射率急速上升,到420nm时,折射率升至2．40,显示出典型的电子带间跃迁的色散曲线．由“包络法”和Tauc关系确定BST薄膜的光学能隙约为3．66eV．
