ABSTRACTWe examined the influence of momentary annealing on the nanoscale surface morphology of NiO(111) epitaxial thin films deposited on atomically stepped sapphire (0001) substrates at room temperature in O2 at 1.3 × 10−3 and 1.3 × 10−6 Pa using a pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique. The NiO films have atomically flat surfaces (RMS roughness: approximately 0.1–0.2 nm) reflecting the step-and-terrace structures of the substrates, regardless of the O2 deposition pressure. After rapid thermal annealing (RTA) of the NiO(111) epitaxial film deposited at 1.3 × 10−3 Pa O2, a periodic straight nanogroove array related to the atomic steps of the substrate was formed on the film surface for 60 s. In contrast, the fabrication of a transient state in the nanogroove array formation was achieved with RTA of less than 1 s. However, when the O2 atmosphere during PLD was 1.3 × 10−6 Pa, random crystal growth was observed and resulted in a disordered rough surface nanostructure after RTA.

Epitaxial thin films (4–1000 Å) of Ti contacts have been deposited via UHV electron beam evaporation at room temperature on monocrystalline, n-type, alpha (6H)-SiC(0001). The interfacial chemistry and microstructure, and the electrical properties, were investigated at room temperature and after annealing at 700 °C up to 60 min. High resolution TEM analyses revealed the formation during annealing of reaction zones consisting of Ti5Si3 and TiC. The corresponding electrical properties exhibited considerable stability except after an initial 20 min anneal. Current-voltage (I-V) measurements showed that the Ti contacts were rectifying with low ideality factors (n < 1.09) and typical leakage currents of 5 × 10−7 A/cm2 at −10 V. The Schottky barrier heights calculated from x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and I-V and V-V measurements were between 0.79 and 0.88 eV for the as-deposited contacts and between 0.86 and 1.04 eV for the annealed contacts.
