ABSTRACTWe present the metalorganic chemical vapor deposition growth, n-type and p-type doping and characterization of AlxGa1-xN alloys on sapphire substrates. We report the fabrication of Bragg reflectors and the demonstration of two dimensional electron gas structures using AlxGa1-xN high quality films. We report the structural characterization of the AlxGa1-xN / GaN multilayer structures and superlattices through X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. A density of screw and mixed threading dislocations as low as 107 cm-2 was estimated in AlxGa1-xN / GaN structures. The realization of AlxGa1-xN based UV photodetectors with tailored cut-off wavelengths from 365 to 200 nm are presented.

ABSTRACTProperties of μc-Si:H films grown by rf sputtering and by glow discharge-chemical vapor deposition (GD-CVD) using diluted-hydrogen and hydrogen-atom-treatment method were compared employing TEM, X-ray diffraction, Raman scattering and FT-IR. The films deposited by both methods all exhibited comparable grain sizes in the range of 10–18 nm. and showed the same tendency in almost all the Measurements.

The structure of a chemical-vapor-deposited (CVD) diamond thin film on a Mo substrate was studied using quasi-parallel X-ray and glancing incidence techniques. Conventional X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that the sample consists of a diamond thin film, a Mo2C transition layer, and Mo substrate. The Mo2C transition layer was formed by a chemical reaction between the diamond film and the Mo substrate during the CVD process. A method for layer-thickness determination of the thin film and the transition layer was developed. This method was based on a relationship between X-ray diffraction intensities from the transition layer or its substrate and a function of grazing incidence angles. Results of glancing incidence X-ray diffraction analysis showed that thicknesses of the diamond thin film and the Mo2C transition layer were determined successfully with high precision.

Micro/nano-crystalline multilayered ultra-smooth diamond (USCD) films are deposited on the interior-hole surface of conventional WC-Co drawing dies with a combined process consisting of the hot filament chemical vapor deposition (HFCVD) method and polishing technique. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), surface profilemeter, Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction (XRD) are employed to provide a characterization of as-deposited USCD films. The results exhibit that as-deposited USCD films present an ultra-smooth surface, its surface roughness values (Ra) in the entry zone, drawing zone and bearing zone are measured as 25.7 nm, 23.3 nm and 25.5 nm respectively. Furthermore, the working lifetime and performance of as-fabricated USCD coated drawing dies are examined in producing copper tubes with hollow sinking, fixed plug and floating plug. The results show that the lifetime of USCD coated drawing is as more than 30 times as that of WC-Co drawing dies in the drawing process with hollow sinking, 7 times in the fixed plug drawing and 10 times in the floating drawing.

AbstractHot-filament chemical vapor deposited (HFCVD) boron doped polycrystalline diamond thin films having low volume resistivity were grown on sapphire. The films were characterized using scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction, and current-voltage measurements. SEM micrographs show good crystalline structure with preferred (100) orientation normal to the surface of the film. X-ray diffraction pattern revealed diamond characteristics with the four typical diamond peaks present. Finally, the obtained I-V characteristics indicated that the film's volume resistivity is at least two orders of magnitude lower than those of HFCVD polycrystalline diamond thin films grown on silicon under similar growth conditions.
