The growth characteristics of RF-magnetron sputtered nanocrystalline TiO2 thin films

الملخص EN

In this paper, RF Magnetron sputtered TiO2 thin films deposited on glass slices at various powers (75,100,125 and 150) Watt for (1.5) hour and different thickness (62.5-88-118 and 132.6) nm, the TiO2 thin films annealed with 400°C for 2 hour and the morphology and structure of these films are described by X-ray diffraction XRD and atomic force microscopy AFM to show the phase structure.

X-ray diffraction investigation uncovered that the crystalline size of the TiO2 thin films displays an expanding pattern with increasing the sputtering power.

The preferred orientation of (101) was watched for the films deposited with sputtering power of (75,100,125 and 150) Watt.
