ABSTRACTWe present the results of optical properties of multi layer thin films as in the media of phase change optical disk data storage. Reflectance and optical contrast of multi layer thin films increased rapidly between 100 °C and 150 °C. Moreover, optical contrasts at different wavelength were also studied. The refractive index and the optical band gap decreased, while the extinction coefficient increases as the crystallization occurs. The Egopt of crystalline thin film was ∼0.6 eV lower than that of amorphous thin film. Egopt decreased as the number of stacked layer increased.

Ni-doped copper nitride films have been prepared by co-sputtering of Ni and Cu targets. The addition of Ni to Cu3N films reduced the intensity of the (111) diffraction peak, and lead a little angular shifts of the peaks. The films showed a large difference in reflectance in the infrared and visible before and after thermal decomposition, which is applicable to optical recording media. The films change from a semiconductor to a conductor with the increased ratio of Ni in Cu3N films.

High-density ruthenium (Ru) thin films were deposited using Ru(EtCp)2 (bis(ethylcyclopentadienyl)ruthenium) and oxygen by thermal atomic layer deposition (ALD) and compared to magnetron sputtered (MS) Ru coatings. The ALD Ru film growth and surface roughness show a significant temperature dependence. At temperatures below 200 °C, no deposition was observed on silicon and fused silica substrates. With increasing deposition temperature, the nucleation of Ru starts and leads eventually to fully closed, polycrystalline coatings. The formation of blisters starts at temperatures above 275 °C because of poor adhesion properties, which results in a high surface roughness. The optimum deposition temperature is 250 °C in our tool and leads to rather smooth film surfaces, with roughness values of approximately 3 nm. The ALD Ru thin films have similar morphology compared with MS coatings, e.g., hexagonal polycrystalline structure and high density. Discrepancies of the optical properties can be explained by the higher roughness of ALD films compared to MS coatings. To use ALD Ru for optical applications at short wavelengths (λ = 2–50 nm), further improvement of their film quality is required.
