摘要
At room temperature, TiO2 films were deposited by direct current pulse magnetron sputtering. Varying the O-2/Ar flow ratio, TiO2 films with different crystalline structures and surface morphologies were obtained. X-ray diffraction spectra and atomic force microscopy showed TiO2 films mainly existed as amorphous and crystalline structures when the O-2/Ar flow ratio was less and more than 6/14, respectively. With these results, a critical point was found at O-2/Ar = 6/14. The film growth behavior was controlled by the shadowing effect and the mixture of crystallographic orientation and grain growth effects, when the O-2/Ar flow ratio was less and more than the critical point, respectively. The present work reveals a simple way to prepare the high quality anatase phase TiO2 films at room temperature, as well as the growth mechanism behind it. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
