Structural and Optical Properties of Yttrium Oxide Thin Films for Planar Waveguiding Applications
Structural and optical properties of Yttrium Oxide thin films for planar waveguiding applications Stuart J. Pearce,a) Greg J. Parker,a) Martin D.B. Charlton,a) and James S. Wilkinson b) a) Electronic and Computer Science, Southampton University, SO17 1BJ b) Optoelectronics Research Center, Southampton University, SO17 1BJ Thin films of Yttrium Oxide, Y2O3 were deposited by reactive sputtering and reactive evaporation to determine their suitability as a host for a rare earth doped planar waveguide upconversion laser. The optical properties, structure and crystalline phase of the films were found to be dependent on the deposition method and process parameters. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis on the ‘as-deposited’ thin films revealed that the films vary from amorphous to highly crystalline with a strong peak along the <222> plane of Y2O3. The samples with the polycrystalline structure had a stoichometry close to bulk cubic Y2O3. SEM imaging revealed a regular column structure confirming their crystalline nature. The thin film layers which allowed guiding in both the visible and infra-red region had lower refractive indices, higher oxygen content and had a more amorphous structure. Higher oxygen pressures during the deposition leads to a more amorphous layer. PACS numbers: 68.55. J-, 78.66. -w, 81.15. -z, 42.82.Et, 78.20. -e INTRODUCTION Recently there has been considerable interest in fabrication and characterization of waveguide layers as solid-state laser host materials for use as optical amplifiers in telecommunications. These include Aluminum Oxide,1 Zirconium Oxide,2 Titanium Oxide,3 Scandium Oxide,4 and Yttrium Oxide.5-7 Planar waveguide lasers made with rare earth doped thin films are a desirable method to achieve high optical gain in a small and compact device.5 In selecting the most suitable material for a rare earth doped solid state waveguide laser, desirable properties for a host material include: low optical loss, low peak phonon energy, ability to be easily doped, and ability to waveguide at the pump and emission wavelengths.

Long * and Paul C. McIntyre Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305, USA; E-Mail: [email protected] * Author to whom correspondence should be addressed; E-Mail: [email protected]. Received: 12 May 2012; in revised form: 10 July 2012 / Accepted: 16 July 2012 / Published: 24 July 2012 Abstract: The literature on polar Gallium Nitride (GaN) surfaces, surface treatments and gate dielectrics relevant to metal oxide semiconductor devices is reviewed. The significance of the GaN growth technique and growth parameters on the properties of GaN epilayers, the ability to modify GaN surface properties using in situ and ex situ processes and progress on the understanding and performance of GaN metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) devices are presented and discussed. Although a reasonably consistent picture is emerging from focused studies on issues covered in each of these topics, future research can achieve a better understanding of the critical oxide-semiconductor interface by probing the connections between these topics. The challenges in analyzing defect concentrations and energies in GaN MOS gate stacks are discussed. Promising gate dielectric deposition techniques such as atomic layer deposition, which is already accepted by the semiconductor industry for silicon CMOS device fabrication, coupled with more advanced physical and electrical characterization methods will likely accelerate the pace of learning required to develop future GaN-based MOS technology. Keywords: GaN growth; oxides; high-κ, surfaces; treatments; interface; ALD 1.

High-purity anhydrous ScCl3 molten salt was used as the Sc-bearing raw material for preparing the Sc-bearing master alloy. Inert gas was used to enhance the purity of anhydrous scandium chloride and reduce the hydrolysis rate of scandium. The results show that high-purity scandium chloride (purity, 99.69%) with the scandium content of 29.61%, was obtained, and the hydrolysis rate of scandium was 1.19% under the conditions used: removing ammonium chloride; residual crystal water temperature of 400 ◦C; m(Sc2O3):m(NH4Cl) = 1:2.5; holding-time of 90 min; heating-rate of 12 ◦C/min; and argon ﬂow of 7.5 L/min.

Transparent P-Type Semiconductors: Copper-Based Oxides and Oxychalcogenides
coatings Review Transparent p-Type Semiconductors: Copper-Based Oxides and Oxychalcogenides Nengduo Zhang 1,2,†, Jian Sun 3,† and Hao Gong 1,* 1 Department of Materials Science and Engineering, National University of Singapore, Singapore 117576, Singapore; [email protected] 2 NUS Graduate School for Integrative Sciences and Engineering, National University of Singapore, Singapore 117456, Singapore 3 Faculty of Materials Science and Chemistry, China University of Geoscience, Wuhan 430074, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] † These authors contributed equally to this work. Received: 31 January 2019; Accepted: 16 February 2019; Published: 20 February 2019 Abstract: While p-type transparent conducting materials (TCMs) are crucial for many optoelectronic applications, their performance is still not satisfactory. This has impeded the development of many devices such as photovoltaics, sensors, and transparent electronics. Among the various p-type TCMs proposed so far, Cu-based oxides and oxychalcogenides have demonstrated promising results in terms of their optical and electrical properties. Hence, they are the focus of this current review. Their basic material properties, including their crystal structures, conduction mechanisms, and electronic structures will be covered, as well as their device applications. Also, the development of performance enhancement strategies including doping/co-doping, annealing, and other innovative ways to improve conductivity will be discussed in detail. Keywords: p-type semiconductors; transparent oxides; delafossite; oxychalcogenide 1. Introduction Transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) possess high electrical conductivity and good optical transparency in the visible light range, and they have been intensively studied over the past few decades due to their important roles in electronic industries including photovoltaic cells (PV cells), touch screen displays, solid-state sensors, organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), and liquid crystal displays [1–3].
