    Investigation of the Structural and Optical Properties of Copper-Titanium Oxide Thin Films Produced by Changing the Amount of Copper
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2019) Horzum, Şeyda; Gürakar, Sibel; Serin, Tülay
    We examine how the structural, morphological and optical properties of TiO2 thin films are changed with heavily copper (Cu) content. Variations in characteristic properties of the films with 0, 12.5, 25 and 50 wt% Cu contents, grown by sol-gel dip coating method, are observed by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman scattering, atomic force microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray analysis and optical spectroscopy measurements. The XRD and Raman spectra indicate that pure TiO2 film forms in the anatase structure. At high Cu concentrations, XRD results also reveal the substitution of Ti with Cu and formation of extra compound Copper-Titanium oxide. Raman measurements also show that Cu is incorporated homogeneously into TiO2 matrix up to 12.5 wt% concentration and this uniformity is distorted at higher Cu contents. In addition, optical spectroscopy measurements show that the optical band gap energy decreases from 3.26 eV to 2.05 eV with increasing Cu concentration. Furthermore, it is observed that the refractive index values obtained by means of transmittance spectra at 550 nm wavelength; increases from 2.47 to 3.39 when the Cu concentration increases from 0 to 50 wt %.

    Evolution of Sio2/Ge Multilayer Structure During High Temperature Annealing
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2010) Şahin, D.; Yıldız, İlker; Gençer İmer, Arife; Aygün, Gülnur; Slaoui, A.; Turan, Raşit
    Use of germanium as a storage medium combined with a high-k dielectric tunneling oxide is of interest for non-volatile memory applications. The device structure consists of a thin HfO2 tunneling oxide with a Ge layer either in the form of continuous layer or discrete nanocrystals and relatively thicker SiO2 layer functioning as a control oxide. In this work, we studied interface properties and formation kinetics in SiO2/Ge/HfO2(Ge) multilayer structure during deposition and annealing. This material structure was fabricated by magnetron sputtering and studied by depth profiling with XPS and by Raman spectroscopy. It was observed that Ge atoms penetrate into HfO2 layer during the deposition and segregate out with annealing. This is related to the low solubility of Ge in HfO2 which is observed in other oxides as well. Therefore, Ge out diffusion might be an advantage in forming well controlled floating gate on top of HfO2. In addition we observed the Ge oxidation at the interfaces, where HfSiOx formation is also detected. © 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Ge Nanocrystals Embedded in Sio2 in Mos Based Radiation Sensors
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2010) Aktağ, Aliekber; Yılmaz, Ercan; Mogaddam, Nader A.P.; Aygün, Gülnur; Cantaş, Ayten; Turan, Raşit
    In this work, the effects of gamma radiation on the Raman spectra of Ge nanocrystals embedded in SiO2 have been investigated. SiO2 films containing nanoparticles of Ge were grown using the r.f.-magnetron sputtering technique. Formation of Ge nanocrystals was observed after high temperature annealing in an inert atmosphere and confirmed by Raman measurements. The intensity of the Raman signal originating from Ge nanocrystals was found to decrease with increasing gamma radiation. The study also includes the gamma radiation effects on MOS structure with Ge nanocrystals embedded in SiO2. The gamma radiation effects from 500 up to 4000 Gray were investigated. Capacitance-voltage measurements were performed and analyzed. Oxide traps and interface trap charges were calculated. Results show that MOS structure with Ge nanocrystals embedded in SiO2 is a good candidate to be used in radiation sensors, especially at high radiation doses. © 2010 Elsevier B.V.

    Diffusion Length Measurements of Microcrystalline Silicon Thin Films Prepared by Hot-wire/Catalytic Chemical Vapor Deposition (hwcvd)
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2006) Okur, Salih; Güneş, Mehmet; Finger, Friedhelm; Carius, Reinhard
    Hydrogenated microcrystalline silicon (μc-Si:H) films prepared by using the hot-wire/catalytic chemical vapor deposition (HWCVD) technique at low substrate temperatures between 185 °C and 220 °C with different silane concentrations (SC) were investigated using steady-state photocarrier grating (SSPG) and the steady-state photoconductivity methods (SSPC). Crystalline volume fractions (IC RS) obtained from Raman spectroscopy change from 0.22 to 0.77. The diffusion length (LD) is measured at generation rates between G = 1019 and 1021 cm- 3 s- 1. LD changes from 27 nm to 270 nm, with maximum values around SC = 5%. The dependence of LD on SC is similar to that observed for similar quality microcrystalline silicon films prepared using the VHF-PECVD technique. The grating quality factor, γ0, drops from about 0.9 to 0.5 after transition to the microcrystalline regime as indication of scattering from surface patterns.
