ZnO film growth on sapphire substrate by RF magnetron sputtering  

Kang Seung Min (한서대학교 신소재공학과)
Abstract
ZnO epitaxial films have been grown on a (0001)sapphire substrate by RF magnetron sputtering. The single crystalline ZnO films were grown at the condition of growth rate of about 0.1~0.2 $\mu\textrm{m}$/hr and the substrate temperature of $600^{\circ}C$. The film thickness was about 400~500 nm. The thin film quality and micro-structure have been evaluated by XRD and TEM observation.
