Oxidation and atomic migration between CuOy and SnOx layers magnetron sputtered on polyethylene terephthalate
Alternated bilayers of tin (SnOx) and copper (CuOy) oxides were synthesized by reactive magnetron sputtering on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) to study the atomic interlayer migration and oxidation states. The total thickness of the bilayers was between 468 and 482 nm. The thickness of sublayers and interfaces were calculated by continuous erosion with Ar ions, finding 86 nm in PET-CuOy, 34 nm in SnOx-CuOy and 57 nm in CuOy-SnOx. It was found Cu atomic interlayer migration to its neighbors but not Sn migration. The metallic chemical states were studied by means of the energetic distribution of Cu2p3/2, Sn3d5/2 and O1s orbitals. In the SnOx-CuOy bilayer, CuOy oxides formed during the sputtering showed 5 chemical states with y = 0 (56.5 %), 0.6 (19.0 %), 1.2 (10.1 %), 1.9 (5.8 %) and 2.6 (2.0 %); and when it diffused into the SnOx layer, 4 chemical states were formed with y = 0.3 (53.9 %), 1.0 (18.6 %), 1.7 (8.2 %) and 2.4 (only at 0 s of erosion with 7.8 %). These numbers suggest different oxidation in Cu when it is formed directly from the sputtering in an oxygen atmosphere and when it diffuses among the metallic layers. In SnOx, 3 Sn chemical states were found with x = 0.4 (3.8 %), 1.8 (93.5 %) and 3.3 (2.7 %) without migration to the Cu layer. From a global point of view, O/Cu and O/Sn atomic ratios showed different values from those relative to their respective chemical valences.
期刊介绍:
Thin Solid Films is an international journal which serves scientists and engineers working in the fields of thin-film synthesis, characterization, and applications. The field of thin films, which can be defined as the confluence of materials science, surface science, and applied physics, has become an identifiable unified discipline of scientific endeavor.
