Selective Brookite Polymorph Formation Related to the Amorphous Precursor State in TiO₂ Thin Films

Journal Article Mangum, John S. ; Agirseven, Okan ; Haggerty, James E. S. ; ... - Journal of Non-Crystalline Solids

A wide variety of brookite TiO₂ synthesis methods have been published over the past several decades, but few studies discuss the underlying mechanism that stabilizes brookite over its stable counterparts, rutile and anatase. Here in this study, we investigate of the effect of pulsed laser deposition parameters on the as-deposited amorphous precursor titania thin films, which subsequently crystallize into stable and metastable TiO₂ polymorphs upon annealing. We find that oxygen pressure in the deposition chamber strongly influences the non-equilibrium state of the amorphous precursor, which ultimately allows for selective polymorph formation. Rutile forms as the dominant phase at low pO₂more »« less

Utilizing TiO₂ amorphous precursors for polymorph selection: An in situ TEM study of phase formation and kinetics

Journal Article Mangum, John S. ; Garten, Lauren M. ; Ginley, David S. ; ... - Journal of the American Ceramic Society

Selective synthesis of metastable polymorphs requires a fundamental understanding of the complex energy landscapes in which these phases form. Recently, the development of in situ high temperature and controlled atmosphere transmission electron microscopy has enabled the direct observation of nucleation, growth, and phase transformations with near atomic resolution. In this work, we directly observe the crystallization behavior of amorphous TiO₂ thin films grown under different pulsed laser deposition conditions and quantify the mechanisms behind metastable crystalline polymorph stabilization. Films deposited at 10 mTorr chamber oxygen pressure crystallize into nanocrystalline Anatase at 325 degrees C, whereas films deposited at 2 mTorrmore »« less

Low temperature rf sputtering deposition of (Ba, Sr) TiO{sub 3} thin film with crystallization enhancement by rf power supplied to the substrate

Journal Article Yoshimaru, Masaki ; Takehiro, Shinobu ; Abe, Kazuhide ; ... - Journal of Vacuum Science and Technology. A, Vacuum, Surfaces and Films

The (Ba, Sr) TiO{sub 3} thin film deposited by radio frequency (rf) sputtering requires a high deposition temperature near 500 deg. C to realize a high relative dielectric constant over of 300. For example, the film deposited at 330 deg. C contains an amorphous phase and shows a low relative dielectric constant of less than 100. We found that rf power supplied not only to the (Ba, Sr) TiO{sub 3} sputtering target, but also to the substrate during the initial step of film deposition, enhanced the crystallization of the (Ba, Sr) TiO{sub 3} film drastically and realized a high dielectricmore »« less

Structural Study And Optical Properties Of TiO{sub 2} Thin Films Elaborated By Thermal Oxidation Of RF Magnetron Sputtered Ti Films

Journal Article Guitoume, D ; Achour, S ; Guittoum, A ; ... - AIP Conference Proceedings

We report on the effect of thickness on the structural and optical properties of TiO{sub 2} thin films obtained by direct exposure of Ti metal film to thermal oxidation. Ti thin films with thicknesses ranging from 87 nm to 484 nm were deposited onto glass substrate by RF magnetron sputtering. Thereafter, the as-deposited Ti films were annealed in air at temperature equal to 520 deg. C. The structural evolution and optical properties of obtained TiO{sub 2} films were studied by means of Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS), grazing incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and UV-Visible spectroscopy. The filmsmore »« less
