摘要
We have deposited dense and pinhole-free thin films of SiO2, Al2O3 and ITO at room temperature via ion beam sputtering. The SiO2 films were found to be of similar quality as thermal oxide with a resistivity greater than 1015 Ω·cm and breakdown field in excess of 7 MV/cm. The Al2O3 films were part of a Pt- Al2O3-Pt vertical tunnel junction and were kept extremely thin, from 2 nm to 4 nm. The current-voltage characteristics of these junctions indicated a breakdown field in excess of 20 MV/cm, roughly twice that achieved by ALD films. This breakdown voltage was found to be independent of junction area, strongly suggesting the absence of pinholes in the film. The ITO films were 50 nm to 100 nm thick. As deposited, they are fully transparent with an electrical resistivity of 5x10-4 Ω·cm.
