Growth of 4 wt% Ga-doped epitaxial ZnO thin film on MgAl2O4 (111) substrate using hydrothermally grown ZnO buffer layer |
초록 |
4 wt% Ga-doped epitaxial ZnO (GZO) thin films were prepared on the ZnO buffered and non-buffered MgAl2O4 (111) substrates by RF magnetron sputtering method at a low growth temperature of 250 C. The epitaxial ZnO buffer layer was deposited on a MgAl2O4 (111) substrate by hydrothermal technique using aqueous solutions of zinc nitrate hexahydrate, ammonium nitrate and ammonium hydroxide at 90 oC. The effect of a ZnO buffer layer on the crystallinity, epitaxy nature, surface morphology, optical, and electrical properties of the GZO thin films are investigated. The X-ray diffraction pattern showed that the GZO thin films grown on a buffered substrate are epitaxially grown with an orientation relationship of . The GZO thin films grown on a non-buffered substrate are polycrystalline with hexagonal wurtzite phase having highly c-axis preferred, out-of-plane orientation and random in-plane orientation. The room temperature photoluminescence spectra of the epitaxial GZO thin film grown on a buffered substrate showed sharp near band edge emission peak and lower broad deep-level emission peak than that of the polycrystalline GZO thin film grown on a non-buffered substrate. The electrical resistivity of the GZO thin film is improved from 4.69×10-3 Ωcm to 2.27×10-3 Ωcm by introducing hydrothermally deposited ZnO buffer layer. |
