Physical Characteristics Of Sol-gel Derived SiO2 Thick Film on 4H-SiC.
The excellent properties of SiC have led to the usage of this material as a substrate for high power, high temperature, and high frequency metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS)-based device applications [1,2,3]
Advances in Smart Materials and Applications
This is one of a series of special issues published in Advances
in Materials Science and Engineering, focusing on the latest
advances of smart materials and their applications.
Evolution of engineering materials is strongly depending
on the growing transformation of complexity in engineering
products. New materials being designed are required to provide
specific properties and demonstrate certain functional
characteristics by manipulating their dimension, chemistry,
and structure through various advanced technologies.Therefore,
“smartness” of a material has become the topic of interest.
Properties of smart materials may change accordingly to
the applied external stimuli.
Under the direction of the editorial team, we showcase
advances of organic and inorganic based smart materials
and their applications in areas of specific interest such as
energy, environment, and health. A total of 9 articles are
published in this special issue. Six articles are focused on
production, synthesis, and optimization of smart materials;
and the remaining are dedicated to application of smart
materials
Effects Of Post-Deposition Annealing Time In Forming Gas Ambient On Y2O3 Films Deposited On Silicon Substrate
The effects of post-deposition annealing (PDA) time (15, 30, and 45 min) at 800˚C in forming gas (95% N2-5% H2) ambient was systematically studied for RF-magnetron sputtered Y2O3 films on n-type Si(100) substrate. X-ray diffraction characterization has revealed the detection of Y2O3 phase oriented in (400), (440), (541), and (543) planes for all of the investigated samples. Atomic force microscopy was utilized to acquire 2-dimensional surface topograpy of Y2O3 films subjected to different PDA time. An increment in rootmean-square roughness was perceived as PDA time was prolonged. In addition, currentvoltage and capacitance-voltage characteristics of the investigated Al/Y2O3/Si-based metaloxide-semiconductor capacitors were also presented in this work
High-K LaCeO For Passivation Of Si Substrate
High dielectric constant rare earth lanthanum cerium oxide (LaCeO) films have been studied as the passivation layers for silicon substrate. Effects of post-deposition annealing time (15, 30, and 45 min) was carried out at 700ºC towards structural and morphological characteristics of the films. As the annealing time was increased from 15 to 45 min, a shift in the diffraction angles, peak intensity, and peak width obtained from high resolution X-ray diffraction happened and resulted in changes in term of crystallite size and lattice strain present in the films. Corresponding influence on the film roughness has been also explored. A functional metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) based capacitor using the LaCeO film was fabricated in order to study current-voltage characteristics of the sampl
Effect Of Nitric-Oxide Post-Oxidation Annealing On High-Temperature Oxidized 4H SiC.
Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor FETs using 4H-SiC have been investigated intensively because 4H-SiC semiconductor has excellent physical properties for power-device applications
Band alignment and enhanced breakdown field of simultaneously oxidized and nitrided Zr film on Si
The band alignment of ZrO2/interfacial layer/Si structure fabricated by simultaneous oxidation and nitridation of sputtered Zr on Si in N2O at 700°C for different durations has been established by using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Valence band offset of ZrO2/Si was found to be 4.75 eV, while the highest corresponding conduction offset of ZrO2/interfacial layer was found to be 3.40 eV; owing to the combination of relatively larger bandgaps, it enhanced electrical breakdown field to 13.6 MV/cm at 10-6 A/cm2
