摘要
In situ Auger electron, x-ray photoelectron, and electron energy loss spectroscopic data were obtained on epitaxial Α-Be3N3layers grown on (111) and (100) silicon substrates. Films were grown by laser ablating a beryllium foil in molecular nitrogen ambient at 750 °C. The ultrahigh vacuum laser ablation growth system is attached to an analysis chamber equipped with an e-gun, an x-ray source (dual anode Mn/Al), and an electron analyzer MAC-3, all from CAMECA. The spectra show that the film surface is free of impurities, except for traces, of oxygen. Quantitative XPS analysis for the film yields 61, 35, and 4 at % for beryllium, nitrogen, and oxygen concentrations, respectively. © 2004 American Vacuum Society.
