Abstract

We present the results of an extensive STM investigation of the parasitic crystallites appearing during the growth of ZrB2(0 0 0 1) buffer layers on Si(1 1 1) aimed at understanding their nature and preventing their growth. Owing to the identification of several of their facets, deemed to induce their nucleation with undesired orientations, we determined the epitaxial relationships with the substrate and pointed out the large variety of possible misorientations. As the short direction of the crystallites systematically corresponds to the largest misfit, the anisotropic epitaxial strain is deduced to be the origin of the anisotropic growth for most of them. We have experimentally demonstrated that the formation of the crystallites can be kinetically prevented giving rise to ZrB2 buffer layers with a dramatically improved quality. This work is therefore expected to open a way to the technologically relevant growth of defect-free GaN-based LED on Si(1 1 1).

Abstract

International audience; Ferroelectric symmetric superlattices consisting of alternating layers of PbTiO3 and PbZr0.2Ti0.8O3, were grown by pulsed laser deposition on SrTiO3 and SrRuO3-coated SrTiO3 substrates. The superlattices, with wavelengths K ranging from 20A ° to 200A ° , were analyzed using x-ray diffraction (h 2h diffraction scans, rocking curves, and reciprocal space mapping), high resolution transmission electron microscopy, and piezoforce scanning microscopy. For large-period superlattices, the strain is relieved by the formation of an a/c polydomain structure which propagates through the whole film. We investigate the influence of the wavelength on the a-domain volume fraction, the lattice parameters, the in-plane strain exx, and the mosaicity of the samples. We show that with decreasing the wavelength, a reduction of the a-domain volume fraction is observed as well as a reduced tensile in-plane strain and a lower mosaicity. A concomitant improvement of the local ferroelectric response is detected. Below a critical wavelength of about 30A ° and a critical sample thickness of 500A ° , the formation of 90 a/c domains is inhibited and the superlattices are completely c oriented. Thus the reduced wavelength induces compressive strain which dominates over the tensile clamping due to the thermal expansion mismatch between the substrate and the superlattice. This compressive strain favors a c-oriented structure in the PbTiO3/PbZr0.2Ti0.8O3 superlattices.

Abstract

International audience; We used pulsed laser deposition to grow a series of PbTiO3/PbZr0.2Ti0.8O3 superlattices on SrTiO3 and SrRuO3/SrTiO3 substrates. An a/c polydomain structure was evidenced by reciprocal space mapping and by transmission electron microscopy. Insertion of ultra-thin layers of SrTiO3 at the interfaces between PbTiO3 and PbZr0.2Ti0.8O3 layers has inhibited this polydomain formation. A strong decrease in the tetragonality indicates clearly that the polarization state in these superlattices has changed due to the insertion of the SrTiO3 layers. A purely elastic mechanism does not seem to explain the determined structural parameters
