structural, electrical and optical properties of molybdenum oxide thin films prepared by post-annealing of mo thin films

Authors
abstract

molybdenum thin films with 50 and 150 nm thicknesses were deposited on silicon substrates, using dc magnetron sputtering system, then post-annealed at different temperatures (200, 325, 450, 575 and 700°c) with flow oxygen at 200 sccm (standard cubic centimeter per minute). the crystallographic structure of the films was obtained by means of x-ray diffraction (xrd) analysis. an atomic force microscope (afm) and a scanning electron microscope (sem) were employed to investigate the samples surface morphology. a four point probe instrument and a spectrophotometer were used for electrical resistivity and transmittance spectrum measurements, respectively. xrd results showed a moo3 polycrystal (single phase) for annealed samples at 450 and 575°c, while annealed sample at the highest temperature (700°c) had a mixed phase of moo3 and mo9o26. both the grain size and the surface roughness of the samples increased with annealing temperature. the electrical resistivity and transmittance spectrum of the films increased with increasing of annealing temperature up to 575°c, while an increase in annealing temperature to 700°c had an inverse effect. it was also observed that the thicker films (with 150 nm thickness) had lower resistivity and transmission.

Structural and electrical properties of In-doped vanadium oxide thin films prepared by spray pyrolysis

The In-doped vanadium pentoxide nanostructures with different doping levels including 0, 10, 20 and 30 at.% were prepared by the spray pyrolysis technique. The prepared thin films were characterized by the x-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The XRD results revealed that the films were crystalline in tetragonal phase. Increasing the In-doping level made the structure...

Investigation of Structural, Morphological and Optical Properties of Chromium Oxide Thin Films Prepared at Different Annealing Times

Chromium oxide (α-Cr2O3) thin films were prepared using thermal annealing of chromium (Cr)films deposited on quartz substrates by direct current (DC) magnetron sputtering. The annealingprocess of the films was performed for different times of 60, 120,180 and 240 min. The influenceof annealing time on structural, morphological and optical properties of the prepared films wasinvestigated by diffe...

Effects of Annealing and Thickness on the Structural and Optical Properties of Crystalline ZnS Thin Films Prepared by PVD Method

Zinc Sulfide (ZnS) thin films were deposited on glass substrates at the pressure of 10-6 mbar by thermal resistor evaporation technique. The effects of annealing on the structural, optical properties of ZnS films were studied. Crystalline ZnS films have been analyzed by X-ray diffraction. Only cubic phase with the preferred (111) plane was found in ZnS films. Optical characteristics were studie...
