摘要
We ablated Si, SiO and ITO targets in low-pressure O-2 (0.1-5 Pa) with XeCl and KrF laser pulses at fluences of 5-8 J/cm(2). The films were deposited on Si < 100 > and glass (BK7) substrates at temperatures of 20-600 degreesC. The substrates were generally set parallel to the target. To reduce droplet deposition, some films were deposited in off-axis configuration or using the so-called "eclipse method", characterized by a shadow mask between target and substrate. Dense, continuous ITO films with resistivity as low as 1.6x10(-4) Omega cm and a high transparency (80-90%) in the visible region were deposited. Ultra-thin (similar to6 nm) films were deposited and successfully used as electrodes in optoelectronic devices. Dense, stoichiometric, thick (>2 mum) SiO2 films were deposited on substrates either at room temperature or heated at moderate temperatures (100-600 degreesC). Droplet density and surface roughness are kept quite low (similar to5 nm) by using special deposition configurations. It results that multi-component films like ITO (indium tin oxide) and silica (SiO2) can be efficiently deposited by using the reactive pulsed laser deposition technique.
