ABSTRACTThe chtaracteristics of ion beam assisted deposition are discussed and compared with those of photon beam assisted deposition. Effects of various deposition parameters including ion species, beam energy and substrate temperature are discussed. Deposited films usually include impurities such as C and O. Inclusion of oxygen takes place by enhanced oxidation by background oxygen and may be reduced by depositing in a clean vacuum. Promising applications of maskless ion beam assisted deposition are also discussed.

AbstractThe variation in the substrate temperature during ion beam assisted deposition (IBAD), which employs the use of energetic ions to bombard a growing film, has been shown to influence the quality of crystalline texture in MgO films. Determining the acceptable deviation from the optimum ion to molecule ratio for different substrate temperatures establishes the optimum MgO deposition conditions. For each fixed deposition temperature, a set of samples was produced by varying the ion assist beam current from sample to sample while keeping the deposition rate constant. In this way, the ion to molecule ratio was modified and the range of achieving well textured films was determined. The investigation of the MgO texture dependence on the substrate temperature reveals that the best in-plane alignment is obtained at ˜ 25°C. At this temperature, MgO films with in-plane orientation distribution as low as 3.7° full width at half maximum (FWHM) have been attained. MgO films deposited at temperatures higher than 100°C have broad in-plane alignment. Although, the deposition at the lowest temperature (-150°C) did not improve the in-plane texture, the acceptable deviation from the optimum ion to molecule ratio for achieving biaxially textured films was the largest. As a trend, the acceptable ion to molecule deviation decreases with increasing substrate temperature. This is especially important for continuous IBAD MgO depositions where less restrictive conditions are desired.

Based on the selenium ion beam assisted magnetron sequential sputtering technology, low temperature deposition of CIS thin-film solar cells in high quality can be achieved. By comparing with the method of conventional gas phase atomic deposition, and through simulated analysis from the perspective of diffusion uniformity, numerical calculation on the depth of ion beam injection is proceeded. First, according to the classical collision theory in molecular dynamics, the theoretical calculation on the process of ion implantation is done; the concentration distribution of implanted selenium ions can be got by using TRIM program for simulation analysis. On this basis, the concentration distribution of selenium ion after diffusion can be further obtained. Finally, the calculation model is established; through comparison and analysis, when the selenium diffusion uniformity is same in the both conditions, the substrate temperature T1 needed for ion beam assisted deposition and the substrate temperature T2 needed for gas phase atomic deposition are respectively calculated. The calculation results show that on the premise of merely considering the depth of implanted ions, from the perspective of the diffusion uniformity, the selenium ion beam assisted deposition technique can obviously reduce the substrate temperature comparing with traditional vapor deposition technology.
