Abstract

ABSTRACTThe interface behaviour during PE-MOCVD deposition of Y2O3 thin films on Si/SiO2 (8 Å) substrates has been investigated by XPS, TEM and OES analysis. The deposition process involves the sequential injection of MO precursors into the CVD chamber and is assisted by an O2 plasma. The injection frequency greatly influences the interface behaviour in terms of thickness and composition. The O2 plasma and the solvent also greatly affect substrate oxidation, and subsequently interface formation during deposition. Several mechanisms are discussed to account for substrate oxidation in view of a careful control of interface formation.
