用户论文:Optical inhomogeneity of ZnS films deposite

Zinc sulfide (ZnS) films with optical thickness (reference wavelength is 620 nm) ranging from 310 to 1240 nm were deposited on quartz substrates at room temperature by a thermal evaporation system. The structure and morphology of the films were investigated by X-ray diffraction, atomic force microscopy, respectively. The optical properties of the films were determined by in situ transmittance measurements and wideband spectra photometric measurements, respectively. The experimental results show that the
films exhibit cubic structure, and the intensity of the (2 2 0) diffraction peak enhances with the increase of optical thickness. Surface grain size and surface roughness increasemonotonously with increasing film thickness. Refractive indices and extinction coefficients calculated by in situ transmittance measurements are well consistent with those calculated by wideband spectra photometric measurements. Both the refractive index and packing density of the film increase as the increase of film thickness, which
confirms the film is positive inhomogeneous and has an expanding columnar structure. Extinction coefficients of the films increase with increasing film thickness, which results from the increase of surface roughness. 扫描探针显微镜(SPM/AFM/STM)
