Abstract

The growth characteristics on the MgO thin films prepared by the e-beam evaporation method have been investigated. We observed the film of preferred orientation and surface morphology with various parameters such as substrate temperature, deposition rate on Si(100) and slide glass respectively. Consequently, it was shown that MgO(111) preferred orientation films can be obtained as the deposition rate was increased on Si(100) substrate. MgO(220) peak was found as the substrate temperature was increased. Whereas, in case of slide glass the orientation is changed from (200) to (111) by substrate temperature. Also we investigated the relationship between the film characteristics and the orientation of MgO thin films.

MgO 박막은 성장용 기판 또는 완충층으로 이용되고 있으며, 근래에는 AC PDP의 유전체 보호막으로써 그 활용도가 넓어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 전자빔증착법에 의해 MgO 박막을 증착시켜 증착변수에 따른 MgO 박막의 성장특성을 연구하였다. 실험은 증착기판, 증착속도, 기판온도 등의 변화에 따른 MgO 박막의 우선배향성, 표면형상을 통하여 MgO 박막의 물성을 알아보았다. 실험결과, Si 기판에서는 증착속도가 빠를수록 (111)우선배향된 박막을 얻을 수 있었고, 기판온도가 상온일때는 (200)에서 기판온도가 증가할수록 (220)의 peak이 관찰되었다. 비정질인 slide galss 기판일 경우에는 상온에서 MgO 박막의 (200)면의 우선배향을 얻을수 있었고, 온도에 의해 배향성이 (200)면에서 (111)면으로 바뀌는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 MgO 박막의 배향성과 특성에 대한 관계를 조사하였다.
