Research Abstract |
The purpose of the present work is to dvelope the multiple layer films composed of ceramics and metal films, having new mechanical and physical properties. In order to fabricate such a layer film, ion beam sputtering device was developed, in which some designs have been made to meet the requirements that the specimens can be prepared in high vacuum and that the deposition can be carried out with the atomic order. Silicon carbide films and alminium/silicon carbide multiple layer films were deposited by the ion beam sputtering and r.f. magnetron sputtering devices, and their atomic structures were studied. The results obtained are as follows. 1. Silicon carbide films were made on (001) Si wafer substrates at the temperatures below 573 K, and they had amorphous structures (a-Si_<1-x>C_x). It is shown from IR measurements, X-ray diffraction and transmision electron diffraction that C atoms are distributed uniformly in the films, and that the coordination number of C atoms is four-fold in the C mole fraction range of O<equal or less than>X<equal or less than>0.5. 2. The positions of halo peaks observed in RHEED profiles for a-Si_<0.5>C_<0.5> (a-Sic) films differ from those observed in X-ray and transmission electron diffraction profiles. From a comparison of these data it can be considered that distance between the nearest neighbor atoms at the surface is longer than that in the film, and also from the distorted micro-crystalline model it is suggested that the structure in th surface layer is more distorted than in the film. 3. Reflection electron diffraction and Auger electron spectroscopy of a-SiC/Al/a-Sic triple layer films found that some thin reaction layer might exist at the Al/a-SiC interface. When the triple. layered films were annealed above 673 K, Si presipitates and Al_4C_3 layer were formed at the interface.
