It is demonstrated that the application of an ultrathin aluminum oxide (Al 2O 3) capping film can improve the level of silicon surface passivation obtained by low‐temperature synthesized SiO 2 profoundly. For such stacks, a very high level of surface passivation was achieved after annealing, with Seff < 2 cm/s for 3.5 Ω cm n‐type c‐Si. This can be attributed primarily to a low interface defect density ( Dit < 10 11 eV –1 cm –2). Consequently, the Al 2O 3 capping layer induced a high level of chemical passivation at the Si/SiO 2 interface. Moreover, the stacks showed an exceptional stability during high‐temperature firing processes and therefore provide a low temperature (≤400 °C) alternative to thermally‐grown SiO 2.

In this paper designing, preparation and characterization of multifunctional coatings based on TiO 2/SiO 2 has been described. TiO 2 was used as a high index material, whereas SiO 2 was used as a low index material. Multilayers were deposited on microscope slide substrates by microwave assisted reactive magnetron sputtering process. Multilayer design was optimized for residual reflection of about 3% in visible spectrum (450–800 nm). As a top layer, TiO 2 with a fixed thickness of 10 nm as a protective film was deposited. Based on transmittance and reflectance spectra, refractive indexes of TiO 2 and SiO 2 single layers were calculated. Ultra high vacuum atomic force microscope was used to characterize the surface properties of TiO 2/SiO 2 multilayer. Surface morphology revealed densely packed structure with grains of about 30 nm in size. Prepared samples were also investigated by nanoindentation to evaluate their protective performance against external hazards. Therefore, the hardness of the thin films was measured and it was equal to 9.34 GPa. Additionally, contact angle of prepared coatings has been measured to assess the wetting properties of the multilayer surface. 相似文献

This paper reports on the results of an investigation of polymer thin films by the methods of thermally stimulated currents
and current-voltage characteristics. It has been found using these methods that, in the band gap of the poly(diphenylene phthalide)
films, there are three groups of electron traps with maxima in the density of states at energies of 0.50, 1.06, and 2.40 eV
with respect to the bottom of the conduction band. These results correlate well with the data obtained in our investigation
of the fluorescence excitation spectra. 相似文献

In this work atomic layer deposition of Al 2O 3 and TiO 2 has been used to obtain dielectric stacks for passivation of silicon surfaces. Our experiments on n‐ and p‐type silicon wafers deposited by thin Al 2O 3/TiO 2 stacks show that a considerably improved passivation is obtained compared to the Al 2O 3 single layer. For Al 2O 3 films thinner than 20 nm the emitter saturation current density decreases with increasing TiO 2 thickness. Especially the passivation of ultrathin (~5 nm) Al 2O 3 is very effectively enhanced by TiO 2 due to a decreased interface defect density as well as an increased fixed negative charge in the stacks. Hence, the thin Al 2O 3/TiO 2 stacks developed in this work can be used as a passivation coating for Si‐based solar cells. (© 2014 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim) 相似文献

We report an increase of electroluminescence (EL) efficiency by about two times for poly(2-methoxy-5-(2′-ethylhexyloxy)-1,4-phenylene vinylene) (MEH-PPV) based polymer light-emitting diodes (PLED) while employing an ultrathin layer of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) between a hole injection layer, polyethylenedioxythiophenne:polystyrenesulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) and an emitting layer, MEH-PPV. The peak power efficiency of the control device (ITO/MEH-PPV/LiF/Al) was 0.42 lm/W with a current efficiency of 0.66 cd/A. The device with the optimized thickness of PMMA interface layer shows the highest power efficiency of 1.15 lm/W at a current efficiency exceeding 1.83 cd/A. The significant improvement in the device performance is attributed to the decrease of holes injection and the promotion of electrons injection, which cause the balance of the carriers within the emitting layer. 相似文献

Ultrathin silicon dioxide (SiO 2) layers formed on Si substrate with nitric acid have been investigated using both acoustic deep-level transient spectroscopy
(A-DLTS) and electrical methods to characterize the interface states. The set of SiO 2/Si structures formed in different conditions (reaction time, concentrations of nitric acid (HNO 3), and SiO 2 thickness [3–9 nm]) was prepared. The leakage current density was decreased by post-oxidation annealing (POA) treatment at
250°C in pure nitrogen for 1 h and/or post-metallization annealing (PMA) treatment at 250°C in a hydrogen atmosphere for 1
h. All structures of the set, except electrical investigation, current-voltage ( I - V), and capacitance — voltage ( C - V) measurements, were investigated using A-DLTS to find both the interface states distribution and the role of POA and/or PMA
treatment on the interface-state occurrence and distribution. The evident decreases of interface states and shift of their
activation energies in the structures with PMA treatment in comparison with POA treatment were observed in most of the investigated
structures. The results are analyzed and discussed.

This letter shows that intrinsic hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a‐Si:H) films deposited by RF magnetron sputtering can provide outstanding passivation of crystalline silicon surfaces, similar to that achieved by plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PECVD). By using a 2% hydrogen and 98% argon gas mixture as the plasma source, 1.5 Ω cm n‐type FZ silicon wafers coated with sputtered a‐Si:H films achieved an effective lifetime of 3.5 ms, comparable to the 3 ms achieved by PECVD (RF and microwave dual‐mode). This is despite the fact that Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy measurements show that sputtering and PECVD deposited films have very different chemical bonding configurations. We have found that film thickness and deposition temperature have a significant impact on the passivation results. Self‐annealing and hydrogen plasma treatment during deposition are likely driving forces for the observed changes in surface passivation. These experimental results open the way for the application of sputtered a‐Si:H to silicon heterojunction solar cells. (© 2014 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim) 相似文献

The vitreous SiO 2 samples irradiated with fast neutrons at a dose of 5×10 17?2.2×10 20 per cm 2 are investigated by the Raman scattering technique. It is demonstrated that the maximum of the low-frequency Raman spectrum (boson peak) shifts with an increase in the irradiation dose, and the medium-range order size decreases from 25 Å for the initial glass to 19 Å for the sample subjected to irradiation at a maximum dose. It is revealed that the fast relaxation intensity obtained from analysis of the low-frequency Raman spectra linearly correlates with the specific volume of the studied samples. 相似文献

We investigate electron tunneling through ultrathin gate oxides using scattering theory within a tight-binding framework. We employ Si[100]/SiO 2/Si[100] model junctions with oxide thicknesses between 7 and 18 Å. This approach accounts for the three-dimensional microscopic structure of the model junctions and for the three-dimensional nature of the corresponding complex energy bands. The equilibrium positions of the atoms in the heterostructure are derived from first-principles density-functional calculations. We show that the present method yields qualitative and quantitative differences from conventional effective-mass theory. 相似文献

Sulfur was embedded in atomic‐layer‐deposited (ALD) HfO 2 films grown on Ge substrate by annealing under H 2S gas before and after HfO 2 ALD. The chemical states of sulfur in the film were examined by S K‐edge X‐ray absorption spectroscopy. It was revealed that the valences of S‐ions were mostly –2 at Ge/HfO 2 interface (GeS x or HfO 2–yS y to passivate the interface), while they were mostly +6 in HfO 2 layers (sulfates; HfO 2–z(SO 4) z). The leakage current density in post‐deposi‐tion‐treated film was lower than that in pre‐deposition‐treated one. This suggests that the passivation of defects in oxide layer by sulfate ions is more effective to lower the leakage current rather than the interface defect passivation by S 2– ions.

Pigment-grade anatase TiO 2 particles (160 nm) were passivated using ultra-thin insulating films deposited by molecular layer deposition (MLD). Trimethylaluminum
(TMA) and ethylene glycol (E.G) were used as aluminum alkoxide (alucone) precursors in the temperature range of 100–160 °C.
The growth rate varied from 0.5 nm/cycle at 100 °C to 0.35 nm/cycle at 160 °C. Methylene blue oxidation tests indicated that
the photoactivity of pigment-grade TiO 2 particles was quenched after 20 cycles of alucone MLD film, which was comparable to 70 cycles of Al 2O 3 film deposited by atomic layer deposition (ALD). Alucone films would decompose in the presence of water at room temperature
and would form a more stable composite containing aluminum, which decreased the passivation effect on the photoactivity of
TiO 2 particles. 相似文献

We studied the thermal stability of HfO 2 on an InP structure when an Al 2O 3 interface passivation layer (PL) was introduced. In contrast to the thick (~4 nm) Al 2O 3‐PL, an almost complete disappearance of the thin (~1 nm) Al 2O 3‐PL was observed after a post‐deposition anneal at 600 °C. Based on various chemical and electrical analyses, this was attributed to the intermixing of the thin Al 2O 3‐PL with HfO 2, which might have been accompanied by the out‐diffusion of a substantial amount of substrate elements.

Heat treatment with high-pressure H 2O vapor was applied to improve interface properties of SiO 2/Si and passivate the silicon surface. Heat treatment at 180–420 °C with high-pressure H 2O vapor changed SiO x films, 150 nm thick formed at room temperature by thermal evaporation in vacuum, into SiO 2 films with a Si-O-Si bonding network similar to that of thermally grown SiO 2 films. Heat treatment at 130 °C with 2.8×10 5 Pa H 2O for 3 h reduced the recombination velocity for the electron minority carriers from 405 cm/s (as-fabricated 150-nm-thick
SiO x/Si) to 5 cm/s. Field-effect passivation was demonstrated by an additional deposition of defective SiO x films on the SiO 2 films formed by heat treatment at 340 °C with high-pressure H 2O vapor. The SiO x deposition reduced the recombination velocity from 100 cm/s to 48 cm/s.

The capturing properties of a neutral diamagnetic two fold coordinated silicon atom with two paired electrons (silylene center =Si:) in SiO 2 are studied with ab initio density functional method. We prove that this defect is a hole trap in SiO 2. Hole capture results in creation of a paramagnetic two-fold coordinated silicon atom with unpaired electron =Si(+). According to this prediction silylene centers can be with silicon-silicon bonds responsible for the positive charge accumulation in MOS devices at ionising radiation. 相似文献

We have prepared PbI 2 microcrystallites embedded in polymer, which have a layer structure and are ultrathin crystals consisting of two to nine monolayers. A very large energy shift of the exciton absorption band has been observed in these microcrystallites and interpreted in terms of size confinement of the translational motion of excitons in the c-direction perpendicular to the crystal surface. The simple effective mass approximation is broken down in 2, 3, 4 layer crystallites, because the crystal thickness is smaller compared to the exciton Bohr radius. Secondly, in the Raman spectrum where the excitation energy is resonant to the exciton energy, there appears a new line in the energy region below 20cm−1 which is characteristic of a ultrathin crystal. The Raman shift increases with decreasing the crystal thickness. This line is assigned as due to a longitudinal mode of a rigid-layer phonon. Thirdly, the confinement of the internal motion is studied by measuring a diamagnetic shift of the exciton energy in the magnetic field up to 150 T and a bound exciton luminescence in the ultrathin microcrystallites. Much larger binding energy of the exciton compared to the bulk value is estimated. This fact suggests that the envelope function of the exciton shrinks not only by a strong spacial restriction in the c-direction but also by the dielectric screening from the surrounding polymer. Fourthly, the exciton-phonon interaction is studied by the hole-burning measurement. From the temperature dependence of the hole width, it is suggested that the exciton is scattered by impurities or defects below 40 K and by a LO phonon above 40 K. Finally, the hydrostatic pressure dependence of the exciton energy and the resonant Raman scattering in the energy region of the optical phonons have been measured and the size effect on the atomic bonding between I and Pb is discussed. It is concluded that covalent bonding between Pb and I atoms changes to ionic bonding in the ultrathin crystallites. 相似文献
