RF plasma MOCVD of Y2O3 thin films: Effect of RF self-bias on the substrates during deposition.

Highlights: [•] Yttrium oxide thin films are deposited by RF Plasma MOCVD Process using Y(thd)3 precursor. [•] Films are deposited under varying influence of RF self-bias on the substrates during deposition (−50V to −175V). [•] It is possible to deposit single phase cubic Y2O3 films at low substrate temperature. [•] RF bias on substrate controls the texture of deposited film. [•] To the best of our knowledge, so far there is no reported study on the effect of RF substrate bias on properties of films. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
