摘要
AlxIn1-xN films with an AlN buffer were deposited on different substrates (including Si(1 1 1), sapphire, and glass) by radio-frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering at a low temperature of 300 degrees C. The morphology and structure analysis revealed that the AlxIn1-xN films grown on Si(1 1 1) and sapphire are of high orientation and good crystallinity with a bandgap energy (E-g) of less than 2.41 eV. The sheet resistance of AlxIn1-xN film grown on Si(1 1 1) and sapphire is approximately 40 Omega/square. These results are highly relevant to the development of effective nitride photovoltaic materials. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
