Intrinsic defects and their influence on the chemical and optical properties of TiO2x films
Résumé
In this work, TiO2 films produced by rf sputtering of a TiO2 target in argon and argon–oxygen plasmas were studied. The oxygen content in the feed gas was varied in a range 3–20%. The chemical composition and structure of films were characterized by Rutherford backscattering spectrometry, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and x-ray diffraction. Important information about the intrinsic defects of the films and their effects on the optical properties as well as a scheme of the energy band structure of the films could be derived from a combined use of optical spectroscopy and XPS.
