Abstract

Topological insulator thin films of Bi2Se3 have been deposited on SrTiO3 (111) substrate by dc magnetron sputtering and annealed in Se environment. X-ray Diffraction (XRD) measurement shows (00l) (l = 3n, where n is an integer) type of reflections over 2θ range of 10–80° without any other peaks indicating that the films are of single crystalline quality along the [001] growth direction confirming that highly c-axis-preferred orientated Bi2Se3 thin films can be obtained by relatively simpler and easily scalable dc magnetron sputtering technique. The results are also confirmed by Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDXS), Photo-electron Spectroscopy (PES) and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) measurements.
