ABSTRACTLow-temperature GaAs layers (LTGaAs) grown by molecular beam epitaxy on GaAs substrates have been characterized by x-ray diffraction techniques. X-ray rocking curve measurements on more than 200 anneal conditions show that through appropriate choice of growth condition, layers with different states of strain are obtained. Three distinct ranges of low temperature growth are defined, labelled as “low-range,” “mid-range,” and “high-range,” corresponding to growth temperatures less than 260 °C, between 260 and 450 °C, and more than 450 °C, respectively. 0.5μm thick films grown in the low-range are amorphous, whereas those in the mid-range are fully strained and lattice-matched to the substrate, and those grown above 450 °C are indistinguishable from ordinary GaAs. Notable properties of mid-range layers are the random behavior of the as-grown strain, and the expansion and contraction of the lattice parameter with thermal anneals up to 900 °C. A growth model for LTGaAs based on arsenic antisite defects is proposed.

AbstractHydrogenated microcrystalline silicon (μc-Si:H) thin films have been obtained by plasma decomposition of SiF4-H2-He mixtures at low temperature (120 °C). The size of crystalline grain and their volume fraction with respect to the amorphous phase have been found dependent on the r.f. power as evaluated by grazing incidence X-ray diffraction, microRaman and ellipsometry measurements. Chemical and electrical properties change according to the microcrystallinity. Pure and/or highly microcrystalline silicon has been obtained at temperature and r.f. power as low as 120 °C and 15 Watt.

ABSTRACTA microstructural study on surfactant templated silica films is performed by coupling traditional X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Transmission Electronic Microscopy (TEM) to Grazing Incidence Small Angle X-Ray Scattering (GISAXS). By this method it is shown that spin-coating of silicate solutions with cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as a templating agent provides 3D hexagonal structure (space group P63/mmc) that is no longer compatible with the often described hexagonal arrangement of tubular micelles but rather with an hexagonal arrangement of spherical micelles. The extent of the hexagonal ordering and the texture can be optimized in films by varying the composition of the solution.

AbstractHigh-temperature X-ray diffraction techniques were employed to study the condensation reactions which occur when sodium orthophosphates are heated to 380°C. Crystalline Na4P2O7 and an amorphous phase were formed first from an equimolar mixture of Na2HPO4·NaH2PO4 and Na2HPO4 at temperatures above 150°C. Further heating resulted in the formation of Na5P3O10-I (high-temperature form) at the expense of the crystalline Na4P4O7 and amorphous phase. Crystalline Na5P3O10-II (low-temperature form) appears after Na5P3O10-I.Conditions which affect the yield of crystalline Na4P2O7 and amorphous phase as intermediates and their effect on the yield of Na5P3O10 are also presented.
