    Notes: We have fabricated and studied the structure and magnetic properties of high quality single crystalline (Mn,Zn)Fe2O4, NiFe2O4, and CoFe2O4 films. Although (Mn,Zn)Fe2O4 and NiFe2O4 films grown directly on SrTiO3 and MgAl2O4 show mediocre structural and magnetic properties, these same films grown on SrTiO3 and MgAl2O4 buffered with CoCr2O4 or NiMn2O4 exhibit excellent crystallinity and bulk saturation magnetization values, thus indicating the importance of lattice match and structural similarity between the film and the underlying layer. X ray, Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy analysis provide a consistent picture of the structural properties of these ferrite films. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Metal oxides with high dielectric constants have the potential to extend scaling of transistor gate capacitance beyond that of ultrathin silicon dioxide. However, during deposition of most metal oxides on silicon, an interfacial region of SiOx can form that limits the specific capacitance of the gate structure. We have examined the composition of this layer using high-resolution depth profiling of medium ion energy scattering combined with infrared spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. We find that the interfacial region is not pure SiO2, but is a complex depth-dependent ternary oxide of Si–Tax–Oy with a dielectric constant at least twice that of pure SiO2 as inferred from electrical measurements. High-temperature annealing crystallizes the Ta2O5 film and converts the composite oxide to a more pure SiO2 layer with a lower capacitance density. Using low postanneal temperatures, a stable composite oxide structure can be obtained with good electrical properties and an effective SiO2 thickness of less than 2 nm with ∼10 nm of composite oxide. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We compare the superlattice modulation, microstructure, and epitaxy of Tl2Ba2Ca2Cu3O10 thin films grown on MgO [100] and SrTiO3 [100] substrates by dc diode sputtering. Films grown on MgO were found to be quite clean with the c axis perpendicular to the substrate. However, no in-plane orientational relationship to the substrate was found. Films grown on SrTiO3, on the other hand, showed very good epitaxy to the substrate despite the presence of second phases. Films grown on MgO also exhibited a longer coherence length of the superlattice modulation than those grown on SrTiO3 under identical conditions.

    Notes: Epitaxial thin films of a copper-oxide-based isotropic metallic oxide (La8−xSrxCu8O20) and superconducting heterostructures (YBa2Cu3O7/La8−xSrxCu8O20/YBa2Cu3O7) have been fabricated by 90° off-axis sputtering. La8−xSrxCu8O20 is an oxygen-deficient pseudocubic perovskite that exhibits Pauli paramagnetism. X-ray diffraction and cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy reveal the heterostructures to have high crystalline quality and clean interfaces. This material will facilitate fabrication of ideal superconductor–normal-metal–superconductor Josephson junctions with low boundary resistance due to its excellent chemical compatibility and lattice match with cuprate superconductors and will be useful for determining the source of interface resistance in such heterostructures. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The structural aspects and annealing behavior of induced damage by Ga+ ion implantation of a GaAs single quantum well as investigated by transmission electron microscopy are presented. After rapid thermal annealing, vacancy and interstitial perfect dislocation loops are found on 〈110〉 and 〈111〉 type planes. In contrast to previous results from superlattices of AlGaAs/GaAs, we find dislocation loops in the AlGaAs as well as in the GaAs layer. The cathodoluminescence intensity of the implanted quantum well recovers completely after annealing.

    Notes: We investigate the role of strained layer superlattices in threading dislocation reduction in the growth of Ge0.5Si0.5 alloys on Si(100) substrates by molecular-beam epitaxy. Several superlattice structures are studied with zero, negative, and positive net strains with respect to a Ge0.5Si0.5 buffer layer. Control samples consisting of uniform strained layers are also grown for each superlattice structure. Transmission electron microscopy analysis of defect densities is found to be hampered by defect losses from thin foils, particularly in the plan view geometry. It is found that although strained interfaces are effective at deflecting threading dislocations into the interfacial plane, little surface threading dislocation density reduction is observed as a function of the presence of the superlattices for dislocation densities of the order 108 cm−2. This observation may be understood in terms of threading dislocation propagation at strained interfacial planes, and a simple predictive model is developed for defect interaction probabilities.

    Notes: We have grown epitaxial spinel ferrite thin films of (Mn,Zn) Fe2O4 and CoFe2O4 on (100) and (110) SrTiO3 and MgAl2O4 buffered by spinel structure buffer layers. High quality spinel ferrite films were grown at 400 °C on buffer layers that were grown at 600 °C and postannealed at 1000 °C. Although (Mn,Zn) Fe2O4 grown directly on SrTiO3 and MgAl2O4 shows mediocre structural and magnetic properties, ferrite films grown on (100) and (110) SrTiO3 and MgAl2O4 buffered with CoCr2O4 exhibit excellent crystallinity and bulk saturation magnetization values, thus indicating the importance of lattice match and structural similarity between the film and the immediately underlying layer. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We describe in situ electron microscrope observations of the motion of misfit dislocations in Ge0.3Si0.7/Si(100) heterostructures. A 350 A(ring) Ge0.3Si0.7/Si(100) structure is grown by molecular beam epitaxy at 550 °C. Although this is below the critical thickness for this composition and growth temperature, we observe misfit dislocation nucleation and propagation as a function of in situ annealing temperature in the electron microscope. This confirms the metastable nature of GeSi strained-layer growth. The misfit dislocation density increases continuously with temperature, passing through an accelerated transition at ∼850 °C. We also report preliminary measurements of misfit dislocation velocity, which establish the identical relationship between threading and misfit dislocations in this system.

    Notes: We have studied the precipitates in YBa2Cu3O7−δ(YBCO) thin films grown by the BaF2 process in pO2=4 Torr and 700 °C. While stoichiometric films result in BaCuO2 surface precipitates, we have found Y2Cu2O5 precipitates embedded in the matrix of the same film. Off stoichiometric films with Ba/Y〈1.5 have a precipitate-free surface but with higher abundance of Y2Cu2O5 in the film matrix. The estimated densities of the two precipitates favor a stoichiometric YBCO film matrix. This behavior is not explainable in terms of phase equilibria and is attributed to kinetic effects. The electrical properties of the films degrade as the Ba/Y ratio deviates from 2.00.

    Notes: Epitaxial ferroelectric SrRuO3/Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3/SrRuO3 heterostructures have been fabricated employing isotropic metallic oxide electrodes on (100) SrTiO3 and (100) Si with an yttria stabilized zirconia buffer layer. The structures have been grown in situ by 90° off-axis sputtering, which allows the growth of uniform stoichiometric films over large areas with excellent step coverage. X-ray diffraction, Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy, and cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy reveal high crystalline quality and coherent interfaces. They exhibit superior fatigue characteristics over those made with metal electrodes, showing little degradation over 1010 cycles, with a large remnant polarization.
