  • The defect states of a Ar-sputtered SiO2 surface on Si (001) were investigated using Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and reflection electron energy loss spectroscopy (REELS). The REELS spectra at the primary electron energy of 500 eV showedthat three peaks at 2.5, 5.1, and 7.2 eV were found within the band gap after sputtering. These peaks do not appear at the primary electron energies of 1,000 and 1,500 eV, which means that the defect states are located at the extreme surface of a SiO2/Si thin film. According to the calculations, two peaks at 7.2 and 5.1 eV are related to neutral oxygen vacancies. However, the third peak at 2.5 eV has never been previously reported and the theories proposed that this defect state may be due to Si-Si bonding. Our Auger data showed that a peak for Si-Si bonding at 89 eV appears after Ar ion sputtering on the surface of the sample, which is consistent with the theoretical models.

  • CuSn thin films were deposited by rf magnetron co-sputtering method with pure Cu and Sn metal targets with a variety of rf powers. CuSn thin films were studied with a surface profiler (alpha step), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray induced Auger electron spectroscopy (XAES), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and contact angle measurement. The thickness of CuSn thin films was fixed at $200{\pm}10nm$ and deposition rate was calculated by the measured with a surface profiler. From the survey XPS spectra, the characteristic peaks of Cu and Sn were observed. Therefore, CuSn thin films were successfully synthesized on the Si (100) substrate. The oxidation state and chemical environment of Cu and Sn were investigated with the binding energy regions of Cu 2p XPS spectra, Sn 3d XPS spectra, and Cu LMM Auger spectra. Change of the crystallinity of the films was observed with XRD spectra. Using contact angle measurement, surface free energy (SFE) and wettability of the CuSn thin films were studied with distilled water (DW) and ethylene glycol (EG).

  • Plasma polymerized hexamethyldisiloxane (PPHMDSO) thin films were produced using an electrode capacitively coupled apparatus. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis indicated that the thin film spectra are composed not only of the corresponding monomer bands but also of several new bands. Auger electron spectroscopy analysis indicated that the permeation depth of aluminum into the films is ca. 30nm when top electrode is deposited by evaporation aluminum. The increase of relative dielectric constant and decrease of dielectric loss tangent with the discharge power is originated from high cross-link of the films.

  • A systematic study on isoelectronic impurities in thin-film eletroluminescent devices (TFELD) has been made on the basis of the experimental analysis aimed at a survey for the blue-emitting materials. Codoping effects of isoelectronic impurities, such as oxygen(O), tellurium(Te), and lithium(Li), on the emissive characteristics of ZnS:Ce$^{3+}$ and ZnS:Tm$^{3+}$TFELD have been investigated by means of the X-ray diffraction studies, the Auger electron spectroscopy, the cathodoluminescent spectra, and the electroluminescent spectra. Experiment results reveal that oxygen codoping gives rise to an increase of the luminance, due to a suppression of the nonradiative energy transfer via sulfur vacancies Te codoping in ZnS:Ce$^{3+}$ TFELD result in a large change in the crystal field around Ce$^{3+}$ ions. Li codoping in ZnS:Tm$^{3+}$ TFELD causes the luminance to increase slightly, due to a lowering in the symmetry of Tm$^{3+}$ions. Likewise, the experimental results suggest strongly that an Auger-type enegy loss via lattece defects such an sulfur vacancies acts as a non-emissive in TFELD.ve in TFELD.

  • A new display -type spherical mirror analyzer has been characterized in terms of the performance and the auger spectra taken by using it. The final goal with the analyzer is to devleop SET(Surface Electron Spectroscopic Tomography) which is capable to provide a 3-dimensional layer-by-layer information nondestructively. This kind of analyzer was originally designed by H.Daimon. The main feature is to display 2-dimensional electronic structures directly onto a screen. In our case, an external micro-electron beam was employed as an excitation source. However, this invokes various problems because of the interference between the electron beam and the analyzer. The problems have been solved through the optimization of various parameters of the analyzer.

  • Structural properties of rf sputtered boron nitride films were studied as a function of deposition parameters such as nitrogen pressure, substrate temperature and substrate bias using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Auger electron spectroscopy. Composition and information on chemical bonding of resultant films was determined by XPS. XPS core level spectra showed that ratio of boron to nitrogen varied from 3.11 to 1.45 with respect to partial nitrogen pressure. Curve fitting of XPS spectra revealed three kinds of bonding mechanism of boron in the films. XPS peak positions of both B 1s and N 1s shifted to higher energy with higher nitrogen pressure as well as increase in substrate bias voltage. AES was used to see possible contamination of films by carbon or oxygen as well.

  • We investigate the influence of the ambient gas during thermal annealing on the photoluminescence (PL) properties of europium-silicate thin films. The films were fabricated on substrates by using a radio-frequency magnetron sputtering method and subsequent rapid thermal annealing (RTA). The mechanism for the formation of the europium silicates during the annealing process was investigated by using X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectroscopy, Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). A series of narrow PL spectra from $Eu^{3+}$ ions was observed from the film annealed in $O_2$ ambient. Broad PL spectra associated with $Eu^{2+}$ ions, with a maximum intensity at 600 nm and a FWHM of 110 nm, were observed from the thin film annealed at $1000^{\circ}C$ in $N_2$ ambient.
