Research Abstract |
X-ray excited optical luminescence (XEOL) has been applied to the site selective XAFS measurements. On the other hand, atomic resolution x-ray holography, which can determine local structure around a specified atom, normally uses the x-ray fluorescence. Before starting this project, there has been no idea of the use of XEOL for othe X-ray holography. To explore new analytical possibility of the XEOL application, we focused on X-ray incident beam angular anisotropy of the XEOL intensity and studied a feasibility of atomic resolution X-ray holography. A ZnO epitaxial film on Al_2O_3 (sapphire) single crystal was adopted for the sample in the present study, because the XEOL is known to be occurred for ZnO and sapphire. The experiments were done at the synchrotron radiation facility SPring-8. The observed intensity variation of the XEOL corresponded to the hologram pattern of Al_2O_3 substrate, which was different from the X-ray fluorescence hologram pattern of Zn Kα.

the XEOL hologram, we estimated positions and amplitudes of the X-rat standing wave lines observed in the hologram patterns by averaging over a given direction of reciprocal lattice space. Measurement of the XEOL spectrum from the ZnO/Al_2O_3 showed that the luminescence from sapphire was dominant, and this was consistent with the result of the XEOL hologram. The X-ray holography measurement using x-ray fluorescence is generally difficult for light elements, such as Al or Si, because of its low cross section for inner shell ionization and the absorption by air. The present study demonstrates that hard x-ray holography measurement for light element can be easily carried out using XEOL. Moreover, we found that the ZnO/AL_2O_3 sample used here emit the strong ultraviolet luminescence (373 nm), which corresponded to bang gap of ZnO thin film, by cooling to 100 K. By selecting the luminescence from ZnO thin film using a grating monochromator, the hologram pattern of ZnO layer could be recorded. Less
