AbstractUsing a newly developed ion beam apparatus, PANDA (Positive And Negative ions Deposition Apparatus), carbon nitride films were prepared by simultaneous deposition of mass-analyzed low energy positive and negative ions such as C2-, N+, under ultra high vacuum conditions, in the order of 10−6 Pa on silicon wafer. The ion energy was varied from 50 to 400 eV. The film properties as a function of their beam energy were evaluated by Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry (RBS), Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Raman scattering. From the results, it is suggested that the C-N triple bond contents in films depends on nitrogen ion energy.

ABSTRACTWe present the crystallization effects occurring in sputtered amorphous Carbon (a-C) thin films deposited on Si induced by post-growth low energy (0.5-1.5 keV) Ar+ ion beam irradiation (IBI). The a-C films after IBI have the form of an amorphous matrix with embedded crystalline regions. X-ray diffraction and Electron Microscopy measurements identified the crystalline phases of carbon and SiC. We study in detail the effects of ion energy and fluence on the crystallization process. It was found that low fluence (∼2×1016 ions/cm2) of ions with an optimum ion energy (∼1.5 keV) promoted the diamond formation. X-Ray Reflectivity (XRR) and Spectroscopic Ellipsometry were used to study the amorphous matrix. XRR discriminated the IBI induced surface and bulk effects through the density and the a-C surface roughness, showing surface smoothing to be more prominent for low energy IBI.

ABSTRACTDirect ion beam deposition of carbon films on silicon in the ion energy range of 15–500eV and temperature range of 25–800°C has been studied using mass selected C+ ions under ultrahigh vacuum. The films were characterized with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy and diffraction analysis. Films deposited at room temperature consist mainly of amorphous carbon. Deposition at a higher temperature, or post-implantation annealing leads to formation of microcrystalline graphite. A deposition temperature above 800°C favors the formation of microcrystalline graphite with a preferred orientation in the (0001) direction. No evidence of diamond formation was observed in these films.

AbstractAn ultra high vacuum ion beam system, consisting of a 20 cm diameter Rf excilted (13.56 MHz) ion gun and a four-axis substrate scanner, has been used to modify large surfaces (up to 1000 cm2) of various materials, including; infrared windows, silicon nitride, polycrystalline diamond, 304 and 316 stainless steels, 440C and M50 steels, aluminum alloys, and polycarbonates; by depositing different chemical compositions of diamond-like carbon films. The influences of ion energy, Rf power, gas composition (H2/CH4 , Ar/CH4 and O2/CH4/H2), on the diamond-like carbon characteristics has been studied. Particular attention was focused on adhesion, environmental effects, IR(3–12 μm) transmission, coefficient of friction, and wear factors under spacelike environments of diamond-like carbon films on various substrates. A quadrupole mass spectrometer was utilized to monitor the ion beam composition for quality control and process optimization.

Ion beam deposition provides an additional control of ion beam energy over the chemical vapor deposition methods. We have used a low energy ion beam of hydrogen and carbon to deposit carbon films on Si(100) wafers. We found that graphitic films, amorphous carbon films, and oriented diamond microcrystallites could be obtained separatedly at different ion beam energies. The mechanism of the formation of the oriented diamond microcrystallites was suggested to include three components: strain release after ion bombardment, hydrogen passivation of sp3 carbon, and hydrogen etching. Such a process can be extended to the heteroepitaxial growth of diamond films.

In this work an Ar+ cluster ion beam with energy in the range of 10–70 keV and dose of 7.2 × 1014–2.3 × 1016 cluster/cm2 was used to irradiate pressed Si nanopowder targets consisting of particles with a mean diameter of 60 nm. The influence of the target density and the cluster ion beam parameters (energy and dose) on the sputtering depth and sputtering yield was studied. The sputtering yield was found to decrease with increasing dose and target density. The energy dependence demonstrated an unusual non-monotonic behavior. At 17.3 keV a maximum of the sputtering yield was observed, which was more than forty times higher than that of the bulk Si. The surface roughness at low energy demonstrates a similar energy dependence with a maximum near 17 keV. The dose and energy dependence of the sputtering yield was explained by the competition of the finite size effect and the effect of debris formation.
