反应溅射氮化镍薄膜的研究
Study of Reactively Sputtered Nickel Nitride Thin Films
摘要:
采用反应磁控溅射工艺,利用不同的N2分流量制备了Ni-N薄膜样品。它们的特征在于使用X射线反射率(XRR),X射线衍射(XRD)和X射线吸收近边光谱(XANES)采取在N K-边缘和Ni L-边缘。通过XRR测量发现,由于在RN 2中的连续进展,Ni-N薄膜的沉积速率和密度降低,这意味着在Ni靶表面和薄膜样品内部都有Ni-N合金和化合物形成。从XRD测量获得的晶体结构表明由Ni、Ni(N)、Ni 4 N、Ni 3 N和Ni 2N给出的不同Ni-N化合物的演变,其中RN 2逐渐升高。XANES测量进一步证实了这些相,与XRD结果一致。极化中子反射率测量进行探测的磁化,它被发现Ni-N薄膜成为非磁性,即使当N掺入增加超过几个原子%。比较了Ni-N样品与Fe-N和Co-N体系的生长行为,发现它们之间既有相似之处,也有不同之处。
英文摘要:
Nickel nitride (Ni-N) thin film samples were deposited using reactive magnetron sputtering process utilizing different partial flow of N2 (RN2). They were characterized using x-ray reflectivity (XRR), x-ray diffraction (XRD) and x-ray absorption near edge spectroscopy (XANES) taken at N K-edge and Ni L-edges. From XRR measurements, we find that the deposition rate and the density of Ni-N films decrease due to successively progression in RN2, signifying that Ni-N alloys and compounds are forming both at Ni target surface and also within the thin film samples. The crystal structure obtained from XRD measurements suggest an evolution of different Ni-N compounds given by: Ni, Ni(N), Ni4N, Ni3N, and Ni2N with a gradual rise in RN2. XANES measurements further confirm these phases, in agreement with XRD results. Polarized neutron reflectivity measurements were performed to probe the magnetization, and it was found Ni-N thin films become non-magnetic even when N incorporation increases beyond few at%. Overall growth behavior of Ni-N samples has been compared with that of rather well-known Fe-N and Co-N systems, yielding similarities and differences among them.
