Structural characterization of mist chemical vapor deposited amorphous aluminum oxide films using water-free solvent

Zenji Yatabe NISHIYAMA, Koshi TSUDA, Takaaki NAKAMURA, Yusui

Published in Journal of the Ceramic Society of Japan

Excellent quality amorphous aluminum oxide (AlOx) thin films have been obtained by atmospheric pressure solution-processed mist chemical vapor deposition (mist-CVD) technique at 400°C using water-free solvent. X-ray fluorescence investigations verified the formation of AlOx film by the mist-CVD. X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, ...

Published in Applied Surface Science

We conducted X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and first-principles calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) to confirm the presence of Ga2O sub-oxide in high-pressure water vapor annealed AlGaN surface. We note that the Ga 3d XPS peak broadens and shifts towards higher binding energies, which suggests surface oxide formation. Dec...

Synthesis and characterization of mist chemical vapor deposited aluminum titanium oxide films

Zenji Yatabe Nishiyama, Koshi Tsuda, Takaaki Nakamura, Yusui Nishimura, Kazuki

Published in Japanese Journal of Applied Physics

Aluminum titanium oxide (Al1–x Ti x O y , an alloy of Al2O3 and TiO2), an attractive high-κ dielectric material, was synthesized by mist chemical vapor deposition, utilizing Al2O3 and TiO2 precursors. X-ray diffraction investigations revealed that the Al1–x Ti x O y (0

Epitaxial Growth of Non-polar ZnS on Sapphire Substrate by Mist Chemical Vapor Deposition

Okita, K. Goto, T. Tanaka, Y. Takenouchi, M. Yatabe, Z. Nakamura, Y. Zenji Yatabe

Published in Extended Abstracts of the 2017 International Conference on Solid State Devices and Materials

Non-polar ZnS layers were epitaxially grown on mplane sapphire substrates by mist chemical vapor deposition at atmospheric pressure. For this growth, ZnO buffer layers were inserted between the ZnS and the sapphire because ZnO has an intermediate lattice constant.

Effects of Electronic States at Insulator/AlGaN Interfaces on Threshold Voltage Instability of Al2O3/AlGaN/GaN Structure...

Zenji Yatabe Asubar, J.T. Nakamura, Y. Hashizume, T.

Published in Extended Abstracts of the 2016 International Conference on Solid State Devices and Materials

This paper presents the effects of the inductively coupled plasma (ICP) etching of AlGaN surface on the resulting threshold voltage (VTH) instability of Al2O3/AlGaN/GaN structures. It was found from the measured capacitance – voltage (C–V) characteristics that the ICP etching of the AlGaN surface showed larger VTH shifts than in the sample without ...

SnO2 thin films grown on m-plane sapphire substrate by mist chemical vapor deposition

Otabe, Tatsuya Sato, Takehide Matsushita, Junya Zenji Yatabe Sue, Koji Nagaoka, Shoji Nakamura, Yusui

Published in 2016 Compound Semiconductor Week (CSW) [Includes 28th International Conference on Indium Phosphide & Related Materials (IPRM) & 43rd International Symposium on Compound Semiconductors (ISCS)

Tin dioxide (SnO 2 ) thin films, as a candidate for realizing next-generation power and optical devices, were grown on 2-inch diameter m-plane sapphire substrates by mist chemical vapor deposition at atmospheric pressure. The SnO 2 thin films were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) in θ-2θ and ø scanning mo...
