Abstract
A comparative study of the growth processes, microstructures, and electrical characteristics of oxide/metal/oxide trilayer structures of different compositions synthesized at 50°C by rf magnetron sputtering in argon has been performed. The effect of subsequent annealing in an open atmosphere on the conductivity of the structures has been investigated. Transmission electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy have been used to examine changes in the microstructure and profiles of distribution of chemical elements included in the structures under annealing. Based on the results obtained, mechanisms have been proposed for the transformation of interlayer interfaces and conditions of carrier transport in the structures, depending on the composition of the oxide and metallic layers comprising them.
期刊介绍:
Crystallography Reports is a journal that publishes original articles short communications, and reviews on various aspects of crystallography: diffraction and scattering of X-rays, electrons, and neutrons, determination of crystal structure of inorganic and organic substances, including proteins and other biological substances; UV-VIS and IR spectroscopy; growth, imperfect structure and physical properties of crystals; thin films, liquid crystals, nanomaterials, partially disordered systems, and the methods of studies.
