Abstract
- Abstract: Zinc oxide (ZnO) thin films have been grown on Si (100) substrates using a femto-second pulsed laser deposition (fsPLD) technique. The effects of substrate temperature and laser energy on the structural, surface morphological and optical properties of the films are discussed. The X-ray diffraction results show that the films are highly c-axis oriented when grown at 80°C and (103)-oriented at 500°C. In the laser energy range of 1.0mJ–2.0mJ, the c-axis orientation increases and the mean grain size decreases for the films deposited at 80°C. The field emission scanning electron microscopy indicates that the films have a typical hexagonal structure. The optical transmissivity results show that the transmittance increases with the increasing substrate temperature. In addition, the photoluminescence spectra excited with 325nm light at room temperature are studied. The structural properties of ZnO films grown using nanosecond (KrF) laser are also discussed.
