研究目的
Investigating the fundamental processes required to tailor two key electrical properties (electrical resistivity and carrier type) of UNCD to MCD films, and obtain initial understanding of the underlying physics.
研究成果
The possibility of changing the conductivity type from P to N for MCD films may open the pathway to enable new generation of polycrystalline diamond films-based electronic devices alternatively to single crystal diamond films-based counterpart.
研究不足
The main limitation towards the implementation of industrial single crystalline diamond film-based electronics is the fact that single crystal diamond films can be grown only on relatively expensive single crystal diamond substrates with very small areas.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
Polycrystalline diamond films from UNCD to MCD were grown and processed via insertion of nitrogen atoms in grain boundaries and via Oxygen and Tetrafluoromethane-based plasma treatment of the film surface.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Diamond films were grown by HFCVD using a mixture of gases on Si wafers.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Blue Wave Semiconductors system for HFCVD, Technics Series 85-RIE system for plasma treatments, Alessi four-point probe system for resistivity measurements, SEM, HRTEM, Raman spectroscopy, XPS.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Films were grown, treated with plasma, and characterized using various techniques to study their electrical and structural properties.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Resistivity, mobility, and carrier concentration were measured as a function of film temperature. Optical properties were characterized using UV-vis measurements.
