氧化钒薄膜制备后需要进行退火处理以降低非晶态氧化钒薄膜的方阻大小并改善薄膜结晶特性。传统退火方式时间较长且退火过程会导致器件性能降低。本文主要利用激光精确控制的特点处理氧化钒薄膜,通过平顶光路系统改变激光功率、高斯光斑形貌以及光斑的重叠率对氧化钒薄膜进行退火处理,主要研究了激光能量密度以及光斑重叠率对氧化钒薄膜的方阻,表面粗糙度以及结晶度的影响。实验结果表明激光功率为0.7 W,光斑重叠率为93.33%,光斑能量密度为62.2 m J/cm^2时,退火氧化钒薄膜的方阻值明显降低,薄膜表面光滑且氧化钒结晶度较好。

One group of SiC films are grown on silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrates with a series of silicon-overlayer thickness. Raman scattering spectroscopy measurement clearly indicates that a systematic trend of residual stress reduction as the silicon over-layer thickness decreases for the SOI substrates. Strain relaxation in the SiC epilayer is explained by force balance approach and near coincidence lattice model.
The effect of changing Be doping concentration in GaAs layer on the integrated photosensitivity for nega- tive-electron-affinity GaAs photocathodes is investigated. Two GaAs samples with the monolayer structure and the muhilayer structure are grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The former has a constant Be concentration of 1 × 10^19 cm^-3, while the latter includes four layers with Be doping concentrations of 1 × 10^19, 7 × 10^18, 4 × 10^18, and 1 × 10^18 cm^-3 from the bottom to the surface. Negative-electron-affinity GaAs photocathodes are fabricated by exciting the sample surfaces with alternating input of Cs and O in the high vacuum system. The spectral response results measured by the on-line spectral response measurement system show that the integrated photosensitivity of the photocathode with the muhilayer structure enhanced by at least 50% as compared to that of the monolayer structure. This attributes to the improvement in the crystal quality and the increase in the surface escape probability. Different stress situations are observed on GaAs samples with monolayer structure and muhilayer structure, respectively.
