Abstract

Good quality ceramic thin films of yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ), MgO, BN and TiN were grown on single crystal silicon with (100) orientation using in-situ pulsed laser physical vapor deposition (LPVD) technique.Laser deposition parameters were optimized and the resulting thin films were characterized by X-ray diffraction ,Rutherford backscattering spectrometry and transmission electron microscopy (plan and cross section). All the films were found to be polycrystalline with a texture. The absence of interfacial reaction and smooth interface on the atomic scale are the main features observed in these oxides and nitrides thin films on Si (100) substrate.
