Reflection high-energy electron diffraction analysis of polycrystalline films with grain size and orientation distributions
We report a computationally efficient algorithm to calculate reflection high-energy electron diffraction ~RHEED! intensities from well-textured, small-grained polycrystalline films in the kinematic limit. We also show how the intensity maps of the spots in a RHEED pattern from such a film can be quantitatively analyzed to determine the film’s average grain size, as well as its in-plane orientat...
متن کاملCharacterization of two-dimensional colloidal polycrystalline materials using optical diffraction
We present an optical-diffraction method for quantitative characterization of two-dimensional colloidal polycrystalline materials. From the angular-diffraction profile we can estimate both the average size of the crystalline grain and the defect density within the grains. Our statistical diffraction model shows that the diffraction line shape is close to a Lorentzian profile if a lot of defects...
متن کاملGrain-Boundary Physics in Polycrystalline Photovoltaic Materials: Preprint
We use the combination of high-resolution electron microscopy and density-functional theory to study the atomic structure and electronic effects of grain boundaries in polycrystalline photovoltaic materials such as Si, CdTe, CuInSe2, and CuGaSe2. We find that grain boundaries containing dislocation cores create deep levels in Si, CdTe, and CuGaSe2. Surprisingly, however, they do not create deep...
متن کاملDepth dependence of residual strains in polycrystalline Mo thin films using high-resolution x-ray diffraction
The magnitude of the stress in a thin film can be obtained by measuring the curvature of the film–substrate couple. Crystal curvature techniques yield the average stress throughout the film thickness. On a microscopic level, the details of the strain distribution, as a function of depth through the thickness of the film, can have important consequences in governing film quality and ultimate mor...
متن کاملGrain boundary studies of high-temperature superconducting materials using electron backscatter Kikuchi diffraction
Grain orientation and grain boundary misorientation distributions in high critical current density, high-temperature superconductors were determined using electron backscatter Kikuchi diffraction. It is found that depending on the type of superconductor and the processing method used to fabricate it, there exist different scales of biaxial texture from no biaxial texture, local biaxial texture,...
