Low temperature PLD-growth of ZnO nanowires on ZnxAl1−xO films — •Alexander Shkurmanov, Chris Sturm, Helena Franke, Holger Hochmuth, and Marius Grundmann — Inst. f. Exp. Phy. II, Universität Leipzig, Leipzig, Germany
Self-organized grown ZnO micro- and nanostructures exhibit high crystallinity and good electronic properties which makes them interesting to be implemented in devices. In order to integrate these nanostructures in CMOS technology, a growth temperature of less than 450∘C is required. For nanowires (NW) prepared by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) typically temperatures of about 900∘C are used [1] and a reduction of temperature is quite challenging. In this work, we present the impact of the Al concentration of the ZnO seed layer on the NW growth and as a function of temperature in the range from 400∘C to 950∘C. At high temperatures (950∘C), the Al concentration has a strong influence on the morphology of the NWs as well as on the NW density. The highest NW density we observed for an Al concentration of about 1.5% within the seed layer whereas for larger values, no NW growth was observed. By reducing the temperature down to 400∘C a decrease of the density and length of NWs can be observed. This can be attributed to the reduced surface mobility of the incoming particles due to the reduced temperature and a possible change of the polarity of the seed layer by the Al incorporation [2].
