研究目的
Investigating the epitaxial growth of NixMg1-xO films on MgO(100) surface and determining the band alignment at the NixMg1-xO/MgO interface for solar-blind device applications.
研究成果
Single crystalline NixMg1-xO films were successfully synthesized on MgO(100) surface using LMBE. The band alignment at the NixMg1-xO/MgO interface was determined, showing a type-I alignment. The work functions of NixMg1-xO films were found to range from 4.33 eV to 4.64 eV. This study provides guidance for the design and fabrication of solar-blind devices.
研究不足
The study focuses on the epitaxial growth and band alignment of NixMg1-xO films on MgO substrates. The theoretical calculation and experimental measurement with the absorption coefficient for valence electronic structure and surface electronic properties were not included.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The NixMg1-xO films were deposited on MgO(100) substrates by laser molecular beam epitaxy (LMBE) using a KrF excimer laser at 248 nm. The growth process was monitored by an in situ high-pressure RHEED system.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
MgO(100) substrates were used, annealed at 600°C for 60 min under background vacuum to clean the surface.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
LMBE system, KrF excimer laser, RHEED system, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy (UPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD).
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The films were deposited under different O2 background pressures. The growth speed and Ni content were measured. The band alignment and work function were determined using XPS and UPS.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The valence band offsets were calculated using Kraut’s method. The work function was determined from UPS spectra.
