摘要
Si-rich SiO2 films were deposited onto Si and quartz substrates by rf co-sputtering, and then annealed under vacuum at temperatures between 500 to 900 degrees C for 1 hour. A combination of high resolution transmission electron microscopy, optical ellipsometry, and UV/VIS and FTIR photospectrometry were used to investigate the microstructures and optical properties of the co-sputtered films before and after annealing. The as-deposited films consisted of a fully amorphous SiOx(1<x<2) structure. After annealing, the films consisted of clusters of crystalline Si with average sizes in the range between 3nm and 8nm embedded in a stoichiometric SiO2 amorphous matrix.
