AbstractX-ray Photoelectron.pectroscopy (XPS) and Conversion Electron M6ssbauer bpectroscopy (CEMS) were used to examine iron that was deposited on the basal plane of MoS2 single crystals and subjected to vacuum annealing, oxidizing, and reducing environments. Iron either intercalated into the MoS2 structure or formed oriented iron sulfides depending on the level of excess sulfur in the MoS2 structure. CEMS data demonstrated that iron sulfide crystal structures preferentially aligned with respect to theMoS2 basal plane and that alignment, and potentially adhesion, could be variedby appropriate high temperature annealing procedures.

ABSTRACTConversion of basal plane dislocations (BPDs) to threading edge dislocations (TEDs) has been observed in 4H-SiC epilayers by simple high temperature annealing. Grazing incidence reflection synchrotron X-ray topography was used to image the dislocations in the epilayers. By comparing the X-ray topographs before and after annealing, some of the BPDs were confirmed to convert to TEDs from the epilayer surface. The dislocation behaviors during annealing are explained and the mechanism of BPD conversion is discussed. It is argued that the conversion process is realized by constricted BPD segments cross-slipping to the prismatic plane driven by the image force and TED glide on its slip plane driven by the line tension. Certain kinetic processes may assist the formation of constrictions on the BPDs.

The effect of high temperature annealing on microstructure evolution of Ni-24Fe-14Cr-8Mo alloy was investigated through Optical Microscopy (OM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Rockwell Hardness Testing Machine. Three kinds of grain growth patterns were found at different annealing temperatures due to carbides precipitation and dissolution. After a combination of high temperature annealing and aging treatment, the hardness versus time curves performed a parabolic pattern. The highest hardness was achieved under 1070°C/60 minutes treatment, and the desirable annealing time should be 60 minutes to 90 minutes.

ABSTRACTFor the first time the (1102) surface of sapphire has been investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy to ascertain chemical changes resulting from annealing in vacuum at 1300° C and 1450° C. As received substrates had a substantial surface C contaminant. For substrates that were chemically cleaned before inserting them into the MBE system no trace of carbon is detected. A residual flourine contaminant results from the cleaning procedure and is desorbed by the vacuum annealing. Spectra of annealed substrates are compared to the unannealed chemically cleaned substrates. The annealed substrates exhibit 0.4 to 0.5 eV shift to higher binding energy of the Al peak and a 0.3 eV shift to higher binding energy of the O peak. In addition, a 2% depletion of oxygen from the surface occurs.

ABSTRACTSynchrotron white beam X-ray topography has been used to characterize defect structures in 6H-SiC wafers grown on (0001) seeds. Two major types of defects are observed: super screw dislocations approximately perpendicular to the basal plane and dislocation networks lying in the basal plane. The super screw dislocations, which have open cores, are growth dislocations. These dislocations act as sources and/or sinks for the glide dislocation networks. Detailed analysis and discussion of dislocation generation phenomena and Burgers vectors will be presented.

Abstract In this work, based on physical vapor deposition and high-temperature annealing (HTA), the 4-inch crack-free high-quality AlN template is initialized. Benefiting from the crystal recrystallization during the HTA process, the FWHMs of X-ray rocking curves for (002) and (102) planes are encouragingly decreased to 62 and 282 arcsec, respectively. On such an AlN template, an ultra-thin AlN with a thickness of ~700 nm grown by MOCVD shows good quality, thus avoiding the epitaxial lateral overgrowth (ELOG) process in which 3–4 μm AlN is essential to obtain the flat surface and high crystalline quality. The 4-inch scaled wafer provides an avenue to match UVC-LED with the fabrication process of traditional GaN-based blue LED, therefore significantly improving yields and decreasing cost.

Studies of the temperature dependence of the electrical properties of glasses show that the high-temperature annealing in glasses observed irreversible processes. These processes lead to changes in electrical conductivity, dielectric permittivity, and hence the electrical capacitance, dielectric loss tangent, and other parameters. Obviously, this is due to structural changes in the glass as a result of high-temperature annealing. In this regard, this paper presents studies of structural and phase transformations in glasses used for the production of microchannel plates in the process of high-temperature annealing in vacuum and in the air atmosphere at different times. The studies were conducted by x-ray phase and X-ray diffraction analysis, as well as X-ray fluorescence elemental analysis.

In this work, we reported a comparative study of ZnO thin films grown on quartz glass and sapphire (001) substrates through magnetron sputtering and high-temperature annealing. Firstly, the ZnO thin films were deposited on the quartz glass and sapphire (001) substrates in the same conditions by magnetron sputtering. Afterwards, the sputtered ZnO thin films underwent an annealing process at 600 °C for 1 h in an air atmosphere to improve the quality of the films. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), ultraviolet-visible spectra, photoluminescence spectra, and Raman spectra were used to investigate the structural, morphological, electrical, and optical properties of the both as-received ZnO thin films. The ZnO thin films grown on the quartz glass substrates possess a full width of half maximum value of 0.271° for the (002) plane, a surface root mean square value of 0.50 nm and O vacancies/defects of 4.40% in the total XPS O 1s peak. The comparative investigation reveals that the whole properties of the ZnO thin films grown on the quartz glass substrates are comparable to those grown on the sapphire (001) substrates. Consequently, ZnO thin films with high quality grown on the quartz glass substrates can be achieved by means of magnetron sputtering and high-temperature annealing at 600 °C.

The annealing behavior of electrical resistivities perpendicular and parallel to the basal plane of heavily nitrogen-doped 4H-SiC crystals was investigated. The temperature dependencies of the resistivities exhibited characteristic behaviors after multiple rounds of high-temperature annealing (1100°C, 30 min). High-temperature annealing induced stacking fault formation to various extents in heavily nitrogen-doped 4H-SiC crystals. Based on these results, we discuss the cause and mechanism of the observed annealing-induced changes in electrical resistivities of the crystals.
