Deposition of ZrO2 film by liquid phase deposition
2006
Abstract In this study, undoped ZrO 2 thin films were deposited on single-crystal silicon substrates using liquid phase deposition. The undoped films were formed by hydrolysis of zirconium sulfate (Zr(SO 4 ) 2 ·4H 2 O) in the presence of H 2 O. A continuous oxide film was obtained by controlling adequate (NH 4 ) 2 S 2 O 8 concentration. The deposited films were characterized by SEM, FT-IR, XRD and DTA. Typically, the films showed excellent adhesion to the substrate with uniform particle diameter about 150 nm. The thicknesses of ZrO 2 film were about 200 nm after 10 h deposition at 30 °C. These films shows single tetragonal phase after heat treated at 600 °C. High annealing temperature (e.g. 750 °C) may result in the phase transformation of (t)-ZrO 2 into (m)-ZrO 2 .
