研究目的
Investigating the effect of Ar ambient pressure on the structural, optical, and electrical properties of nanocrystalline CdS thin films grown by pulsed laser deposition.
研究成果
The study demonstrates that Ar ambient pressure significantly affects the structural, optical, and electrical properties of nanocrystalline CdS thin films. The bleaching of multiphonon Raman modes at higher Ar pressures is a key finding, linked to reduced crystallite size and crystallinity. This has implications for the tunability of electronic properties and transport phenomena in such films.
研究不足
The study is limited to the effects of Ar ambient pressure on the properties of nanocrystalline CdS thin films. The findings may not be directly applicable to other materials or deposition conditions.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involves the growth of nanocrystalline CdS thin films using pulsed laser deposition (PLD) under varying Ar ambient pressures. The structural, optical, and electrical properties of these films are then characterized.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Thin films are deposited on glass and Si n-type wafer substrates using a target of chemically synthesized CdS quantum dots.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment includes a pulsed laser deposition system, atomic force microscopy (AFM), glancing angle X-ray diffraction (GAXRD), micro-Raman spectroscopy, UV–visible absorption spectroscopy, photoluminescence spectroscopy, and Hall measurement setup.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Films are grown at varying Ar pressures, and their properties are analyzed using AFM, GAXRD, Raman spectroscopy, UV–visible absorption, photoluminescence, and Hall measurements.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Data analysis includes crystallite size estimation using Debye–Scherrer’s formula, Williamson–Hall analysis for strain and crystallite size, and Tauc plots for bandgap determination.
