Recently, there has been considerable interest in electronic device applications of diamond thin films. The chemical properties of diamond is stable. So diamond thin films become very useful if they are used for electronic devices. We consider diamond thin films as blue like emitting devices because diamond has a wide band gap(about 5.5eV). Some light emitting devices have been known [1]. First of all we have been trying to deposit diamond thin films on the large areas. If they deposit on the large areas, light emitting devices may be massproduced.

Because of diamond’s wide band gap, high thermal conductivity, high breakdown voltage and high radiation resistance, there is a growing interest in developing diamond-based devices for several new and demanding electronic applications. In developing this technology, there are several new challenges to be overcome. Much of our effort has been directed at developing a diamond deposition process that will permit controlled, epitaxial growth. Also, because of cost and size considerations, it is mandatory that a non-native substrate be developed for heteroepitaxial nucleation and growth of diamond thin films. To this end, we are currently investigating the use of Ni single crystals on which different types of epitaxial metals are grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) for lattice matching to diamond as well as surface chemistry modification. This contribution reports briefly on our microscopic observations that are integral to these endeavors.

The annealing induced enhancement in visible photoluminescence (PL) from nanocomposite (nc) ZnO – SiO x thin films was investigated. Nc ZnO – SiO x thin films consisting of ZnO nanocrystals in silica matrix were grown by depositing the films using radio frequency (rf) reactive co-sputtering and post-annealing them at temperatures of 350°C and 500°C in high vacuum and air. These films were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), (PL) spectroscopy and UV–Vis spectrophotometry measurements. Thin films were also deposited on transmission electron microscopy (TEM) grids in almost identical conditions. The TEM measurement of the thin film deposited on TEM grid shows the formation of ZnO nanocrystals with a size distribution from 3.0 nm to 6.8 nm (+/-0.2 nm) in silica matrix. The UV–Vis spectra of the films show absorption features of ZnO and Zn 2 SiO 4 phases in the films. The visible PL emission intensity and peak width increased in the annealed films. The results suggest increase in the number and size distribution of the ZnO nanocrystals in silica matrix due to the annealing resulting in increase in visible PL emission. The results of vacuum annealed films indicate that these films can be useful in the development of wide band visible light emitting devices using this material.

ABSTRACTLittle has been published about Te-rich ZnSexTel−x grown at low temperatures, in spite of some successes in the fabrication of wide band gap light emitting devices from ZnSeTe alloys grown at higher temperatures. We present x-ray diffraction and photoluminescence (PL) spectra for ZnSeTe epilayers and ZnSeTe/ZnTe superlattices grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). These we compare with measurements on ZnTe, ZnSe and CdZnTe epilayers and on CdZnTe/ZnTe superlattices grown under similar conditions and also with data published for ZnSeTe alloys grown at high temperatures. Equilibrium phase diagrams for the ZnSeTe alloy system suggest a large miscibility gap at MBE growth temperatures; this may account for some unusual features in the (PL) spectra and for large line widths in the x-ray data. In spite of these possible miscibility problems, we find that ZnSeTe alloys luminesce brightly.
